I'm about to sight read this & was pleased to find a recording of it on here. I wish I had someone to help me get started with my basset horn, as with my fancy bass clarinet. A mutual friend of yours, didn't work for me last year. Perhaps we will meet at the upcoming ECA.

Thanks for your comment! I think I have worked together with Jane many years ago. Your comment encouraged me to take contact with her again. Super!!

This was great! Congratulations. Listen to Jane Booth's recording of it on period instruments too, fantastic performance on that CD.

With playing like this it's easy to see why Mozart fell in love with the Basset Horn--thanks for helping keep it alive.

Beautiful playing.

What make of basset horn are you using?

[bobvandevelde]

Hi, thanks a lot for your comment! I play a buffet crampon basset horn, made around 1997. It's a great instrument...

i love this; its simply enjoyable and amazing. i play the piccolo/flute in my school band, and i find this type of music more peaceful. i used to be into the modern music and now, i find this beautiful. and im 13. :) i love country and spa music. :) this is art, the other modern music isnt.

call me crazy, but i love it
