Concerto for Bassoon in a minor RV 497, Antonio Vivaldi, Kenneth Moses, Bassoon
มุมมอง 2628 ปีที่แล้ว
Michael Morgan, Conductor Madison Symphony Players UW-Madison School of Music, 1998. Most bassoonists will agree that it takes a tremendous amount of technical facility to perform these concertos, even on our modern day bassoon. The challenge for bassoonists is getting an even sound, the perfect articulation and equal timbre on each and every note. Then the fun part begins; applying the phrasin...
DIVERTISSEMENT FOR BASSOON AND STRING QUINTET, JEAN FRANCAIX
มุมมอง 6898 ปีที่แล้ว
Kenneth Moses, Bassoon, Madison Symphony Players, Michael Morgan, Conductor Jean Françaix, one might observe, was well named, for his music represents not only his own personality but various characteristics we have come to identify with the French: urbane wit, elegance, élan, all manifesting themselves in ways that reminds us that wisdom and profundity need not be encased in gloomy tones or di...
Orlando, We Will Never Be Afraid
มุมมอง 658 ปีที่แล้ว
How to Grieve If you're like me, I've been struggling with how to process what has happened in Orlando. Today, I was listening to a piece of music I was unfamiliar with by one of my favorite composers, ARVO PART. Then I began to weep, this music seemed so fitting for the uncontrollable anguish I have hidden since the massacre. I began to research the stories of the victims and the vigils held a...

Previn wrote his Sonata for bassoon and piano in 1997 and dedicated it to Nancy Goeres, principal bassoonist of the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra.

The first movement (“With energy”) juxtaposes driving common-tim...

Widening Gyre for Bassoon, Percussion and Piano, Martha Horst Composer, Kenneth Moses, Bassoon
มุมมอง 6398 ปีที่แล้ว
While Assistant Professor of Bassoon at The University of Wisconsin at Madison, I commissioned Martha to write me a piece. I had been a fan of her work while performing in The Left Coast Ensemble in San Francisco. Martha presented me with a sublime work for Bassoon, Percussion and Piano that was both demanding and beautiful. She explores the full range of the bassoon while celebrating the varia...
Robert Schumann, Five Pieces in Folk Style, Op. 102, Kenneth Moses, Bassoon
มุมมอง 5K8 ปีที่แล้ว
the five little pieces for cello and piano come near the end of a string of works turned out in a constant stream. It appears as if Schumann scarcely signed the manuscript of one work before turning to a fresh sheet of music paper and beginning another. The Pieces in Folk Style are small lyrical works in Schumann’s most characteristic style. The title tells us at once that Schumann is basing hi...

Sonata for Bassoon and Piano, John Steinmetz (1981)
มุมมอง 3.4K8 ปีที่แล้ว
Sonata for Bassoon and Piano is a highly emotive work that is sure to change the energy of the room. Though called Sonata, this three movement piece is not in Sonata form. The first movement, Prelude, explores pitch through the utilization of pitch bends. This movement shows the bassoon as a "Strong-voiced instrument exploring powerful feelings." The second movement is a theme and variations on...
