Goes without saying that the bassoon playing is amazing but I love how in sync the rest of the ensemble is too. The bass and drums especially facilitate such a tight pulse and the piano and guitar provide an amazing harmonic base to build off of. Thank you for sharing this!
And that's Alexandre Silvério again pushing the limits of expression! Please, keep singing. I hear you! I feel you! And once you set the tone, the rest of the quintet just ran with it.
OMG ... I learnt bassoon for a while when I was about 12 years old. Gave up because I had to drag it to and from school. Learnt clarinet and sax, can I be salvaged?
