Concertzender Live

Compiled by our Classical Music desk.

Typically, the bassoon isn’t a noticeable instrument. Most often, it doubles the bassline in an orchestra. Chamber music for bassoon is very scarce.

And yet, we’ll listen to three concerts in which the bassoon is at centre stage – all alone, or featuring a piano or another instrument. Many pieces are composed for that particular concert alone, but we’ll also listen to an arrangement by Schubert. All of the pieces show what the bassoon is capable of. One explores its extreme registers, the other bangs the keys, yet another composer chooses grunting and vibrations, or just a fun melody. The oldest concert in this episode is from 1987, and the latest is from 2015. That’s how this programme shows you the changing modes in composed music.
