Rimembranze del Rigoletto di Verdi — Antonio Pasculli
oboe, piano — — Romantic
First Printing. Composed by Antonio Pasculli. Edited by Sandro Caldini.
The musical world owes the 'Rimembranze del Rigoletto' to the deplorable situation of the underemployed virtuoso: Antonio Pasculli found that there were too few pieces in the oboe literature of his time that were up to par with his abilities.

Antonio Pasculli (October 13, 1842–February 23, 1924) was an Italian oboist and composer, known as "the Paganini of the oboe".
Pasculli was born and lived his whole life in Palermo, Sicily, but travelled widely in Italy, Germany and Austria, giving oboe concerts. He directed symphonic and wind orchestra concerts, which were popular in Italy at the time. He also transcribed a large number of opera pieces for oboe and piano/harp, including works by Bellini, Donizetti, Verdi, and Rossini. One of his well known works is Etude Caractéristique for oboe and piano "Le Api" (The Bees) written in 1874 which resembles and precedes Korsakov’s Flight of the Bumblebee.
Pasculli’s works require extraordinary virtuosity on the instrument. His pieces make constant use of arpeggiations, trills, and scales, and require the oboist to practice circular breathing. His output was essentially forgotten early in the twentieth century, and he remained in oblivion until oboists Heinz Holliger and Omar Zoboli began reviving his music. As a result, some of his works are now available in recordings.
