Who in his right mind would have thought to arrange the 1812 Overture for a quartet of... *_Bassoons?_* What wonderful insanity! Outstanding job of playing.

Learned to play the bassoon when a junior in high school (the HS band had finally gotten sufficient funds to purchase one). Took private lessons for several months before actually playing in the band (I also played tenor saxophone). What a great, fun and sometimes totally insane instrument! So much fun to play once I started to learn how to master a double reed instrument. Now I'm 74, and those days are just fond memories. But will always love the bassoon, and yes, those four young ladies were fantastic. Loved every second of it.

The double-tonguing at 6:33 (and after) in unison--THAT is a highlight, for any woodwind player. Kudos!

It seems there's two things you need to play a bassoon well--talent, and a sense of humor.

I played bassoon through high school and college. Played in a bassoon quartet but nothing like these ladies. Our piece was called 4 Bedposts.

In college (a long time ago) I hung out with music majors. "Farting bedpost" was our term for a bassoon. LOVE the name of the group. And you're amazing! Thank you!

If Napolean had taken a quartet of basoons along, Putin might be speaking French.

This is fantastic. These ladies are obviously enjoying their performance as much as we are. They are excellent musicians playing a well thought out arrangement. The bassoon has four beautiful ambassadors!

Someone get these ladies $50,000 so they can get a contrabassoon, but otherwise impeccable!

I thought the William Tell overture on bassoon was good, but this is better, this is bloody wonderful, and you look like you're having so much fun. I love this, I really do. Thankyou girls.
