Percussionist at 5:50 two hours earlier accidentally put his cymbals through the wash machine...

Oh my god that bassoonist... listen to his note at 1:00. It's at least a c but he makes it come out perfectly!

@alexandergreenb i think it was a professional recording.

its so funny and interesting how in the beginning stravinsky wrote the bassoon part higher than the oboe. i wonder why?
-
Those bassoon notes go to the very top of the instrument's range, so it makes sense that the player switched reeds to go play the lower register sections. As a bassoonist myself, I know that reed choice is half the challenge of the instrument. As for the lack of a turban on the high-reed, that's just nitpicking. I prefer the look of a reed without a turban.
When I grow up I want to be a symphony
