RAY PIZZI "BUBBA" Solo Bassoon Performed by Dr. Jon Beebe, Appalachian State University NC

I have Dr. Beebe as a professor at ASU. I never heard him play till now. Mind blown.

Ray Pizzi loves the bassoon, loves music, and wants to see and hear the instrument recognized in the many contemporary musical styles.

He has, through his performing, composing, education, and cheerleading, done more than any one person in history to promote the use of the bassoon outside of its traditional “classical” role. (Dr. Jon Beebe, IDRS Journal, 2010)
