Bach cello suite in G Major, Vahan Khourdoian Bassoon 

A tone like his is the result of practice and making your own reeds :)

00:00 - Prelude 02:34 - Allemande 07:31 - Courante 10:07 - Sarabande 13:41 - Menuets 1 & 2 16:53 - Gigue

Magnificent job! You play with great emotion and crescendos. Definately my favorite cello suite recording for bassoon.

I have been listening to the prelude all morning on many different instruments. I must say it is best when played on the bassoon and your interpretation is amazing.

His performance is irreplaceable , and captivating

I am veterinarian and an amateur horn player. As a vet. I first check the pulse, as a horn player and when it comes to Bach I first check "Sarabande" and.... Brilliant!!

Such a beautiful warm tone.. Pleasure to listen to. Thank you.

It’s so clean!

Bellísimo, maestro. El fagot, con su timbre y discurso lo hace maravillosamente. Muchas gracias. Desde Chile 🇨🇱 .

This is among the most beautiful bassoons I´ve ever heard. Thank you!

Vahan! I didn't see you for so many years. Great job!! Greetings from Zurich 😊

Amazing!

Incredible! Wonderful playing and tone.

Beautiful

I've never liked this piece at all - NOT one of Bach's more brilliant creations - but it does sound much better on the bassoon than on the cello.

14:58 So mysterious...

Magnificent!

Hi great playing and sound. Wonderful dynamics and articulation. Are you a professional soloist?From which company is your bassoon? It has a great sound, too. Is it a hard reed or a light reed in your opinion you have used.

Muito boa as articulações.

Bassoon suite no 1 ^^

Bravo! Is "Tefal" a make of bassoon? Where are these bassoons made?

Wow, what bassoon do you play on??

Like #400!! Yeahhh

i play the alto saxophone now but great job on the bassoon

Salut Vahan ! C'est Arthur, clarinettiste piccoliste attitré de......l'OJM ;) Ca remonte à des temps anciens. Je t'aurais bien envoyé un message privé mais je ne trouve pas comment faire ça sur RU-vid. Bref, je vais au moins dire que t'as bien grandi et que t'as un son magnifique (tu l'avais peut-être déjà, je ne me souviens plus exactement ^^). J'espère que t'as la forme. Bises

Walter Green would be proud.

double reeds for days!
