@gbushimprov As a Bassoonist, I am naturally incredibly bitter about the fact that the untrained ear can only hear the melody. But I take comfort in knowing that orchestras would not sound the same (mainly due to a lack of beegees) without us :D

I'd love to play with an orchestra. Figure out just how many musicians are really redundant ! I guess there also must be an optimum number of any particular instrument in an orchestra - I could hazard a guess at 4 per channel.

Melody is overrated 😄 Where would they be without the rhythm section?!

@Orion3741 3 жыл бұрын

TheTrapOfficial : very interesting. According to what I have found and read on the internet, the bassoon as woodwind instrument is said to be the most versatile. The first instrument called a "bassoon" was used way back in the mid-17th century. So before Mozart, Beethoven, and Verdi's time, I believe...

I've always preferred hard rock to anything by the Bee Gees, because they were "disco" and of course, to a rocker, that means they sucked. But the truth is that "How Deep Is Your Love" is one of the most beautiful songs written in the 20th century, at the very least. It is fully worthy of any number of full orchestral arrangements. It's a song that touches the heart and it is a gloriously beautiful composition.

Fun fact: Bill Bailey wrote a song for Eurovision last year, AND submitted it. The BBC rejected it because it was "too silly". Too silly. At a show where Norway's performance was titled "Give that wolf a banana" and featured blokes dancing around on stage while wearing cardboard wolf masks...

Tonight I listened to the Magnum pi theme, which led me to The Professionals theme, which led me to The Sweeney background music composed and recorded as library music, which led me to a guy playing the Snooker theme, which led me to Bill Bailey demonstrating the Grandstand and Ski Sunday themes, which led me back to How Deep Is Your Love by bassoons in this.
