Very nice playing! Has anyone ever told you that you that you look like a young Jeff Goldbloom? hehe

Looks like it's in much better shape then the contra I have to play on. The college owns a Puchner..... and it's so old it has no tuning slide.

a very very very funny mix of great music on the contrabassoon. Man, I wish I could play one without scaring the neighbours...

Ok. Well done. What orchestra are you with? I'm contrabassoon/utility 3'd with Rainier Symphony.
What contra do you use? I mostly play on my teacher's 1938 Mollenhauer, though this weekend I'll perform this Symphony on a Moosmann. Love this solo!

That's a Schreiber owned by our Orchestra over here. Not in the best of shape, but we make do. Yes, this moment a fun one for the ContraBassoon . . .

You're really good, and with such a hard solo, you must be near passing out after that. But yeah excellent!!!

Thanks for the praise! Actually there isn't as much danger passing out here as there is after having to play lonnngggg notes, like at the beginning of Zarathustra.

What orchestra is that?

I guess THAT Orchestra would be the one pertaining to the Terre Haute Artists' Theater (T.H.A.T)?
