i used to listen to this everyday after it came out. I was in college for jazz guitar and it opened my mind up to how you can play duo with different instruments. This is beautiful and nostalgic

I'm stoked for everyone who plays the bassoon right now.

Ahhhh the sound of unison notes between air instruments and guitar strings is truly something else.

@tyteixeira603 8 жыл бұрын

I continue coming back to this after months; the natural chemistry with Lage is just too much. I think Julian's sensibilities are near perfect for playing with horn players. Would be stunning to see an extended performance of you two.

I hear so much sax and less often clarinet, you almost never hear a bassoon soloist. This is great!

Everything Julian has done lately has just blown me away. Also Ben's other video with Gilad Hekselman equally amazing (and let's be real, this whole album). But yeah, I just agree with you.

Very beautiful. Most jazz bassoon performances I listened to had that curio aspect like in "look, you can do that on a bassoon, too". But here, as it makes sense for the instrumentation, it is just- beautiful music. Cheers from a fellow bassoon player!

In the description : ""Ben Wendel - Saxophone". Maybe you should say it's a bassoon. I supposed it could be instructive for many youtube listeners who doesn't know this instrument quite rare except in symphonical ensemble.
