Sonatina by Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco. Published by Galaxy, IIRC. Gorgeous piece.
Instrumentalists are all wannabe singers. Discuss.

Never look at the trombones. You'll only encourage them.

If you like funky, look for Tansman (I think it is a sonatina, but not sure).

My absolute favorite is Saint-Saens' Sonata, which is simply a masterpiece.
Money does not make happiness, but it can buy you a piano.  :)

I'm sure there's a Hindemith sonata for Bassoon and Piano.

Yeah, the Hindemith bassoon sonata is great. Look at that.

Roger Boutry's "Interférences" (1972)   ;)

Tansman and Hindemith are also good choices.
"Ciranda das Sete Notas" by Villa-Lobos is also very good.
