A '''bassoon sonata''' is a larger-scale work for [[bassoon]], usually with [[keyboard instrument|keyboard]] accompaniment. Most bassoon sonatas are substantial, multi-movement works, often based on [[Classical period (music)|Classical]] [[sonata (music)|sonata form]]. '''Bassoon sonatinas''', by comparison, tend to be shorter works, often in a single movement. Like [[bassoon concerto]]s, bassoon sonatas were relatively uncommon until the [[20th-century classical music|twentieth century]], at which point they became plentiful. During the twentieth century, the term ''bassoon sonata'' came to denote a wider range of works, including sonatas for [[solo (music)|solo]] bassoon and sonatas for bassoon in various [[duet]]s with other instruments (such as [[cello]] or [[oboe]]).
