Carl Maria von Weber, composed the Andante e Rondo Ongarese, Op. 35, initially for viola and orchestra in 1809. Later, in 1813, Weber reworked the piece for bassoon and orchestra following the success of his Bassoon Concerto.

The work consists of two movements, seamlessly interconnected yet contrasting in character. The first movement, Andante, set in the somber key of C minor, unfolds with a lyrical and expressive quality. Weber's use of the viola allows for a rich exploration of the instrument's capabilities, revealing both its melodic and expressive qualities

The second movement, Allegretto, in key of C major, introducing a lively and spirited theme. The playful and dance-like character of the rondo is enriched by Weber's use of Hungarian elements, reflecting the influence of the popular "ongaresque" style in European music during the early 19th century. The rhythmic vitality and infectious energy of this movement contribute to the overall charm of the composition.
