I played this piece with the city jazz band in Virginia Beach, VA. The solo is actually allocated for 1st tenor sax. This man played this improv solo on bassoon better than the 1st tenor player in the VA Beach jazz band. VERY IMPRESSIVE. Keep up the good work, my friend. Very toned chops.
@gsco82 Bassoon is A LOT harder than sax lol.. I play Bari sax and Bassoon and Sax is soooo easy.. Bassoon is a lot more fun imo and sounds a million times better, but Sax is fun to mess around with and it's shiny :P
Greetings from Brasil, jazzobasson!! Thanx for playing Jobim!! Very nice playing!! It's amazing the hi/low range of this awesome instrument. Do you play saxes also? Abraços!
This is really great. It's so refreshing to see the bassoon played in any other way besides classical. It just gets boring seeing the same thing over and over again with such a great instrument! I am very interested in doing new things with the bassoon.
This is so amazing!!!! I have never heard jazz played by a bassoon before!!! You have fantastic range and a very smooth sound I would not have expected from a bassoon. Keep up the great work!! I'll be looking for more!!!
Yes, as a guitarist I prefer listening to horn players because it sounds so natural, it stands closer to the human voice than all those strings, great playing mr bassoon,I take of my hat,greets Vic.
I hope dou you like my video response... is a Jam maked down here in Peru... im from Venezuela but actually im playing here... i'll be grateful if you make a comment... Thanks!
Awesome !! Respect for you!! This is unique!! Everybody is tired to heard the saxo...Now this wud be the new light and innovation to jazz and bossanova music.. Love this, thanks for playin..
That was fantastic! Yet another reason to love bassoon even more!
I was wondering if you had any sheet music you could send me? Do you do a lot of this improv-style? Aside from starting bassoon, I've been playing violin for years and one of my favorite things to do is play blues with whatever notes feel right at the moment. ;)
Wow. That sounds so cool and totally jazz. I had to switch to tenor sax because everyone said bassoon wasn't a jazz instrument, but now I might try out jazz bassoon : )
That's awesome. I've always wanted to play jazz bassoon, but not too many people in my school would probably be into that. Plus, I'm not that great of a jazz player. I play Euphonium in my schools jazz band. Not such a soloist, haha.
You don't sound like a beginner to me... the running notes in your other videos... I cannot achieve that after two years. And your tone is somewhat of an expert..
are you kidding? we played whatever the hell we wanted in our school bassoon groups... never take the bassoon seriously, plus this sounds awesome! never know why it didn't catch on more.. bassoon jazz..
Muito bom, pena que a maioria dos brasileiros não gostam das suas melhores músicas.
