7.5.2017 8pm Kumho Art Hall Yonsei / Seoul Recital Matthias Racz, bassoon - Hans Agreda contrabassoon G. Rossini Duetto for Violoncello and Contrabass in D Major Fox bassoon and Fox contrabassoon
both players are amazingly talented and musical, but I am really amazed by the contrabassoon. I have never heard that instrument played in such nimble and masterful way before!! I love it!!
This sounds just fantastic, beautifully played by both of you. I've never heard a contrabassoon played with such control and clarity before, awesome job.
All it takes is practice with the goal of taking command of the instrument in every way just as you would if you were studying bassoon, oboe, flute, violin....etc. Both musicians had very good control from pp to FF with beautiful sound. Sound was homogeneous bottom to top. Bravo!
You prolly dont care at all but does any of you know a trick to log back into an instagram account..? I was dumb lost the password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me!
This works quite logically, the contrabass has its own similar raspy sound, so every sound transfers perfectly to the contrabassoon. Lovely idea, and a good way to show off an instrument that has little rep of its own
This was beautifully played. The tone was amazing. I play bass clarinet and clarinet, but ever since I started to learn bass clarinet, I’ve gravitated to lower sounds. I used to like higher pitched sounds, but now I pretty much like every lower instrument sound just as much. (Piccolo, and ridiculously high notes on clarinet are a different story. They lowkey hurt my ears. 😂)
Fast unglaublich, wie souverän virtuos das Kontrafagott hier gespielt wird (das Fagott natürlich auch). Ein Ohrenschmaus, an welchem gewiß auch il Signor Rossini seine Freude (gehabt) hätte! Wenn Genialität und äußerste Professionalität zusammentreffen, dann ist es wirklich ein Erlebnis, dem lauschen zu können. Vielen Dank! 👏🎶👍
Bonjour .Très belle interprétation Très bon détaché des notes ,le contrebasson réussi des performances avec son instrument. Beaucoup de nuances .Merci beaucoup et bravo pour cette interprétation.
Really nice piece and good to see the contrabassoon getting a chance in a chamber piece. There must be so little repertoire for it outside of orchestral works. Impressive performance from both players.
This is actually recorded quite well, which helps to highlight the skill of the musicians. The microphone is of sufficient quality, size, and distance from the musicians.
grande anche ROSSINI ad avere dedicato al controfagotto n grandissimo pezzo : secondo mè RISULTATO STUPEFACENTE..., ANCHE PER IL PUBBLICO COMPETENTE IN SALA !!!!!!! ⭐🌟⭐🌟⭐😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
I play the contra and there's a lot to admire. Getting the trills up in the higher register is tough, somewhat easier on the bassoon. That is darned tough instrument to play, but I love the deep throaty notes of the contra.
There was not NEARLY enough applause! If I had been in that audience I would have been cheering so loud it would have been awkward. I would have thrown panties. I don't even wear panties. But I would have found some. Bravo! Beautifully done.
Chapeau, excellent performance, it can't be done better! I appreciate your playing, the sound of your instruments very much. Could you imagine to play this music with contraforte instead of contrabassoon? Contraforte might be a little louder in order to match the sound of the bassoon.
I loved “the classics” all my life..now 80 years old, and never heard of a contrabassoon !! I love it, don’t tell me “you can’t teach a old dog new tricks” . Did Beethoven (my favorite) score the contra, or is it the conductor’s choice? Notice horns (French) and bassoons play together. Explain, please ! Well done the video ! 😀
I just love it... my dad is faggot player for over 45 years... i have to play him that... this is pure passion... you both are just great... what a guys !!!! BRAVO !!!
The Dutch word (and also the German word plus an extra t at the end) for bassoon is fagot. Why does that give me such a tingly feeling when I see those guys working their reeds so hard? 😜
