Wonderful performance. Still learning from it.
I only discovered this video now. Great work!
The Big Tune works out nicely, with the contrabassoon more obvious than usual.
Hello, very nice arrangement of these thing... Is it possible to get it somewhere? Thank you for answering...
Thank you! www.ashbymayes.com/downloads/goransson-theme-from-the-mandalorian/ Free to download due to copyright - feel free to leave a donation however :)
Super nice piece, it hits all the right places
such a good initiative Ashby!
ngl that one song from zelda kinda sounds like this piece
Bravo!!!
Love woodwind instruments !¡!!!
Kind of like the Where's NOT Waldo song.
SO GOOD!! Thank you so much for sharing your talents with us!
Wonderful! I love the sound. I am a flute player. Impressed.
This is brilliant! 😍😍😍
Bonjour C’ est une magnifique interprétation de ce thème. L’ ensemble est très cohérent bravo pour ce travail.
🎉🎉🎉🎉
Very nice performance! Wonderful tone and the “fireworks” were very well done, indeed. When was this piece written?
Absolutely BEAUTIFUL.
Hear me out… Mars?
Bravo‼️ Editing spit on.
Aquarium here seems so much better, like more vocal
Thanks! Not easy at all though unfortunately 🤣
Well done. This piece was meant for a bassoon ensemble.
Just wonderful, really. A fantastic display of this instrument's range and capabilities. The arrangement makes use of all ranges of the bassoon and showcases it's unique tone in each register, then uses that to great effect. I can't give enough praise to the musicianship and dedication to this arrangement, well done.
this dude looks like a bassoon
Stunning
This is so well done! Also... you low-key look how I'd imagine a bassoon would look if it were a person. And I mean that in the best way possible.
Bonjour L’ ensemble sonné très bien’ Bravo pour cette mise en place et les « couleurs » qui sont ici exposées. Beaux détachés et précision des attaques c’ est un travail d’ orfèvre. C’ est ce que l’ on dit en France pour un travail exécuté avec précision et délicatesse.
This is incredible. Consider me a new subscriber.
I enjoyed your performance.
bravo👏😃
Promo-SM 😢
This was under a scott the woz post and i thought this was sttached to it and he said he learned basson 😭
Omg, The Elephant is perfect for the Contrabasson!!!
insane range!!!!!
Wonderfull
Isn’t it so aesthetic that the angle of the bassoons line up perfectly from frame to frame
Thank you for that beautiful rendition of Holsts Jupiter, my favorite!
It deserves so much more, it's impressive. You play the bassoon in a different way, I'm French and the teachers still play as if they were on a French bassoon
Incredible range and tone! I love hearing the sounds a bassoon can make when paired with an extremely skilled player!
insane how the amount of people who've seen this haven't at least liked the video
only a few weeks for this quality??? insane work!
That tone quality is so rich and luke warm. Such a beautiful basson sound.
👏👏👏👏😭👏👏👏👏
Love it!
Far better than I ever learned to play it! Wonderfully-spirited performance with, excellent choice and execution of articulations. A couple of minor nits, the most unfortunate being that the final high-C was a tad sharp. Again though, *_waaaay better_* than I ever learned it back in high school!
Ashby, this is wonderful! Although I can't help wondering if my recorder playing wife would be slightly miffed that you so successfully took the theme away from her instrument...
OUTSTANDING!!! Congratulations on an amazing work.
You can't even do your own contra part? Hahahahahahahahaha!!!!!! All good bassoonists should be able to do that. Also - intonation.
It was in the 2020 lockdown, and I had no contra access 😢 luckily my Professor was keen 🤩
What's wrong with the intonation.....
I didn't even know Bass Bassoon was a thing, and you were huffing and puffing like a Tuba player! Well done!
They’re called contrabassoons and are absolutely awesome
A HIGH G???? So crazy and so cool!!
Hot tip from the bench - try this taped to a piece of cardboard or foam as a budget-friendly way to adapt this if you can't get to glue, wood, and a drill!
