🔥 TAKE FIVE played by Camaleon Bassoons 

Thank you!!

...I really should think about playing bassoon.... *__*

@@BruceCarbonLakeriver Do it. It will either be the best or worst decision you will have ever made 😂 (i am a bassoonist and i love it with all my heart)

Thank you!!

I wish there were more bassoons everywhere.

Would love to hear it on bagpipes. It might just be I’m a little high and a bagpiper. 😂

I play the bassoon and I agree

Nothings stopping you.

With time and practice im sure you will get there.The Bassoon is a truly wonderful instrument with so many different personalities and colours that can be created. NEVER GIVE IT UP!!

dude the upper register is a fucking pain I wish you (and myself) the best of luck

upper registeer is a struggle.

That's mainly because bassoon is easily covered up by most other instruments in jazz ensembles and not many people play bassoon and are interested in playing jazz

Michael Rabinowitz plays in Mingus Orchestra. Such a bassoon uses amplifier.

@@collinpetry1161 well i like both :))

IKR!? It's such a great sounding instrument!

The late Woody Herman had a brilliant multi-reed player by the name of Frank Tiberi. He doubled on bassoon occasionally. Enjoy: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xW9woTx-LSo.html

It's doable, although definitely a lot harder on a double reed than a single reed.

@Lovisa Hermansen MLGY It's the same as saxophone, clarinet, or flute.

I guess he used a bit of flutter tongue?

Thank you!!!

Thank you!!

Hej kk

Thank you!!

That growl sound like a baritone saxophone!!! It's so cool

thank you!!

There not saxophones, there bassoons

Phoenixspin I think their trumpets have autism

Phoenixspin aren't those trombones made out of sugar cane?

Nope, trombones are made from broccoli, the flutes are sugar cane.

Thank you very much!!!

I learned bassoon coming up through concert band. We all definitely learned how to swing. When I started playing in a local orchestra, I was shocked that none of the string players knew what "swing" meant. They certainly didn't know how to read swing music. But the worst of all was that the cellos COULD NOT play off beats! That cost me the bassoon soli section in Academic Festival once. The conductor had to put in a cut to get the celli past their off beats, but that cut our soli out as well. 😡

+Kevin Gray Thank you very much, Kevin!

thanks!

The instrument itself has a decent growly sound initially

Tempdoom Well its something wind players do sometimes in jazz called flutter tonguing where you roll the syllable da and it creates that noise.

JoJoTheMoBro WithAfro growling is done with the throat/vocal chords/diaphragm flutter tonguing is done with the tongue. Growling is mainly a difference is the sound quality giving it a vibrating feel as you are humming into your instrument generally. Flutter tonguing is similar but entirely different and generally a classical technique. It is much more metered than a growl would feel.

Brad McDade So its done more like multiphonics on a brass instrument, good to know.

I'm glad you feel inspired to play! Thank you!
