  • Muito bom, pena que a maioria dos brasileiros não gostam das suas melhores músicas.

  • 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.

  • you are my bassoon hero!!!!!! that was awesome!

  • Can you PM me the sheetmusic? i really want to learn it on my bassoon.

  • That was very bassoony.

  • wow , it's very good! tom jobim ! The master of the bossa nova!

    I'm lot of fan of this guy!

  • ah, muisc to my ears

    

  • Excuse me, but where did you get the sheet music for Corcovado on bassoon. I love that song but can't find it on bassoon.

  • Excuse me, but where did you get the sheet music for Corcovado on bassoon. I love that song but can't find it on bassoon

  • Stan Getz's solo on Corcovado :) nice.

  • @jonnierekkisvalur you're the winner congrats , you're the first who know this music ...and me .

  • @jazzobassoon Thank you ^_^

  • Not jazz, Bossa nova. brazilian music.

  • love it. i was the only bassoon player in my high school. and the only one to ever join the jazz band in that school :P

  • whered u get that music paper

  • @rasp90skillers in my brain sir

  • @jazzobassoon great comment, great video, makes me feel like I am in a jazz club in Brazil.

  • @marydoob but...you are

  • Bassoonova

  • You make that look as easy as a saxophone.. O_O

  • You can play everything on every instrument, when you want to.

    Very nice!!

  • I HAVE TO PLAY THIS IN THE 9TH GRADE!!!!

  • MERCI

  • imagine how amazing that would look in a jazz session!

  • I play the bassoon, too, but never as good as this lol.

  • Awesome. I don't know how you can play like that standing up :P

  • @MrWuzzo like a bassoon

  • @MrWuzzo

    thats what a neck strap is for

  • @AmericanIdiot2001 I know :| but it's still hard for me (I use seat strap most of the time)

  • Muito muito bacana, este bassoon! O Stan Getz esta sorrindo!

  • What is this madness?! Pretty snazzy, I must say!

  • Cool! But I can't stop laughing! This is really good! Quite unusual yet fantastic!

  • Very nice, but I wouldn't trade my tenor sax for a bassoon. Probably a fair bit harder to play than the sax.

  • @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

  • Fantastic!!!!

  • @DiegoDCvids merçi

  • sounds so great

  • you blow

  • i play bassoon

  • If you had a monocle and pocket watch on a gold chain, the universe would freeze over from the solid coolness

  • very good!

    I play bassoon, I'm a portuguese.

  • Fantastic, it works!

  • Respect.

  • very cool

  • He looks like George Carlin.

  • i wish my jazz band let me play my bassoon instead of the tenor..

  • 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!

  • is this corcovado?

  • pretty sick

  • Que chevere esto. Very Good

  • @JVGVLC

  • muy bien... :)

  • So, how does jazz-bassoon work w/ the ladies??

  • no comment

  • @MOLRobocop very well actually

  • @MOLRobocop It's working on me! :D

  • @MOLRobocop

    It works brilliant!

    I almost had a girlfriend once. Just joking. It does give a lot of notice in classical music enviroment though.

    As for you, jazzobassoonman, your'e SO cool!

  • This sounds very similar to a jazz trombone solo. Really phenominal job.

  • That is fabulous! Keep up the good work. Lee Mason

  • Kewl

  • Bravo! Je suis brésilien et je suis très heureux d'avoir la musique de mon pays ici! Bonne interpétation!

  • merci merci merci

  • Thats cool

  • Wow!!!

  • My music teacher would LOVE this. I prefer Bassoon Jazz style than any other. Sounds so lovely ;)

  • i think you are slightly out of tune haha

    jazz samba!

  • I think you must go to school!!!!

    this solo is a solo from a great samba specialist

  • oh, im sorry, no offense intended

    I was just making a joke off the song's title.

    you get a beautiful tone out of your bassoon though, I just wish the sound quality was better

  • These are the changes to How Insensitive. You are thinking of a different song.

  • yes insasatez

  • Actually, this is another Jobim tune called Corcovado (Quiet Nights of Quiet Stars).

  • vous devriez mettre cette chanson sur itunes! Très bon mon ami

  • i meant the instrument.

  • Puchner superior

  • just wondering what you're playing on.

  • JUST BOSSA NOVA

  • this is amazing i play the bassoon in the jazz band at my school its awsome

  • Hahahah forget the elevator! this would go on my iPod!! :D

  • merci catherin

  • i'm trying to get my band teacher to let me play bassoon in jazz band but for now I am on the bari

  • That is what I want to hear in every single elevator for the rest of my life.

  • thanks and long life for you.

  • @Utopiansybill Yeah,in the beginning I thought I was listening to elevator music until 0:20.That man makes elevator music sound enjoyable.

  • I never thought bassoon could be a jazz instrument! the only music i hear it in involves mostly orchestra things like classical music

  • Man. Are you ever in Cali. I've been looking for a bassoon player. With your sound and my voice. Man. Man. Man.

  • Man. Are you ever in Cali. I've been looking for a Bassoon player. Man with your sound and my voice. Man. Man. Man.

  • paul hanson

  • yes

  • I never thought you could blend bassoon and jazz and make it sound good. Nice job!

  • merci

  • so beautiful. sound kewl in bossa nova

  • too hard to play it on jazz!

  • too hard...what is too hard! just enjoy play !

  • Bassoons are the weirdest instruments ever I never thought they could sound good until i heard this! Good job!

  • yes maybe this'll let my teacher accept bassoons in the jazz band

  • I play the bassoon and I think you play it very good!

  • nice

  • Avignon ...

  • man, i just started playing the basson, and i gotta say, i respect you man!

    takes a lot out of me just to keep the right pitch, awesome.

  • 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.

    Thanks for your video.

  • thanks for your message...

  • is it a Mönnig?

    i think i've got the same bassoon :)

    very nice!!

  • it's a Puchner superior.

  • W-O-W :]

  • i love it XD amazing!

  • thanks friend.

  • OMG! I should show this to my band director, maybe she'll let me play jazz bassoon for Jazz Band!

  • I hope for you! bonne chance .

  • 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!!!

  • merci  thanks

  • BRAVISSIMO !!!

    Very great playing

    Corcovado ...

  • merci

  • this is awesome ;D

  • weather channel music

  • An amazing take on an amazing song by an amazing artist. I kneel at your feet.

  • Sounds really great!

  • fudging love the sound of elevator music

  • 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.

  • merci.

    Regards from Brazil !!!

    Marcel

  • That was amazing.

  • very cool

  • Muy pero muy bueno es interesante que un fagotista se atreva a tocar jazz o bossa nova.

  • I have to say, you have an incredible musical talent here.

  • merci

  • why not jazz bassoon...thanks

  • never thought it could be done. and yet here it is, a jazz bassoon playing jazz. will be viewing this video many times.

  • The player seems to define the term "Cool."

    Great jazz, great skill.

  • magnifique!

  • merci

  • how do u do tht when you stand up????

  • 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..

  • merci..

  • 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 : )

  • thanks for your comment, the bassoon will be voice of jazz...one day

  • 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 know hes a good jazz player because hes bald and wears sun glasses inside^^

  • I wish I owned a bassoon :(

    Great playing!

  • That's amazing.

    Just out of curiosity, which brand of bassoon do you have, and how much did it cost? Because one bassoon costs thousands!

    I play bassoon in my high school wind symphony, and I'm currently playing a Selmer that's $4000.

  • Puchner bassoon
