Hindemith Concerto for Trumpet, Bassoon and String Orchestra

First movement. Actually, for this particular rendition, it's the Concerto for Trumpet, Bassoon and Piano Duet with Occasional Violin Solos Just Because. This piece is - how shall I put it? - a little obscure. Polyrhythm and polytonality abound. In fact, I'd say everyone's in divergent keys and/or meters about half the time. Most people will probably not find it musically accessible on the first listening. The more familiar I became with it, however, the more I came to love it.

Watch until the end for a bonus feature!

I agree with your thoughts on the hindemith double concerto. I've heard alot of bad things about the hindemith bassooon sonata, but I've grown to like it after performing it.
