Mozart Bassoon Concerto, mvt. I

[2pepperoni]

I thought the cadenza was very creative. I liked it.

Dangggggg i play bassoon(begginer) and im not even that good that is a beatiful piece i like if i could i would make it my ringtone u have alot of talent i love bassoon so much i hope i canbe that good like u!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ChoiChoiPower]

I quit band because I didn't have the time to attend all the recitals...and I'd be playing bassoon if I had my own bassoon but I don't...

I miss it.

... skipping the ENTIRE opening ritornello because... well, just because, I guess. It's only a over a minute long, dude, and it's not like Mozart was verbose. :P Hummel I could understand abridging, but Mozart?

Love the aggression and ornamentation, though, a lesson a lot of bassoonists could stand to learn. Could use more focus.. a rounder embouchure, tighter in the corners of the lips, would help tremendously..

Cadenza's strange. Borrowing from the Rossini concerto?

[mvs13I2]

The pianist needs more practice. IT is very good altogether, especially the bassoon.

[catalin2580]

its penibil!!!!!!!!!!!!!! let that basson alone, you are the most stupid bassonist i have hear on you tube, idiot.......

[Pencalibur]

I wish I could do that!

Kudos =D

[danaemarie483]

this is my favorite recording i've heard. maybe not the most perfect note-wise, but it's the clearest, and I really love clear playing

[no1superme]

Hey, I play bassoon too, beginner though.

I noticed you have one more key on the thumb side of your tenor joint than me, could you give maybe an explanation?

[danaemarie483]

some bassoons have one more key than others. it just lets you play higher. my bassoon is missing the top key also, and i cant play above a high D :\ it just depends on the model of bassoon, i guess.

[frenchbassoon]

@danaemarie483

Have a high E key? Try these fingerings for high Eb/E/F:

Eb: oxx/xxo, Left thumb C#, right thumb F#.

E: same as Eb + high E

F: same as Eb + left thumb A.

Worked like a charm on my Fox Renard 240. :D

[secundadonna]

If my story ever get turned into a book and then a movie, I want YOU to do the soundtrack and write me a kick-ass cadenza!!!!!!!!!!

God, I wish I had bigger hands so I could major in bassoon and be happy!

[hmin310]

There is lots of good stuff in this performance. I loved your ornamentation, tone quality (for the most part) and overall creativity. Articulation and phrasing are different issues, both of which threw off your tempo a lot at times. Overall though, I think you're a really good player, and I really enjoyed this video!

[Losermountain]

I wish I could be as good as you some day.

[trumpetchump]

This is in fact the only KNOWN 'soon concerto the Moze compsoed. Other than loving the sound of the bassoon, I know nothing about bassoon. But, I did listen to a 2 hour special on KUSC 91.5 (Los Angeles, the radio station of the University of Southern California, Trojan radio). They stated in a nutshell, there are other pieces floating around out there that some claim to be authentic Moze 'soon pieces, but the expert always disprove them in one way or another.

[trumpetchump]

Anybody.....Is this the only BASSOON Concerto the Moze Man composed??

[bassoonchick09]

I really like your ornaments!

[lemonmefunky]

Very good! in fact awesome!

[MimiMonkey83]

Dude!! I NEED that Death By Bassoon poster!!! Anybody know how to find it?

[PugRustlerr]

It's not actually a poster, it's just a little graphic I made in MS Paint by cutting and pasting off the internet. If you like, I can email it to you.

[widnes1112]

Fantastic, love the ornaments

[raypizzi]

.....Great Performance, GREAT CADENZA !

[Bassoonandsax]

This is the King of all bassoon solos. good job!
