I love how after he plays the opening bars of the marriage of figaro, he just stands there for a second like a boss before he starts talking again 2:57
If you don't play bassoon you won't truly understand that this man is great at bassoon. He is where he is because he is great. Bassoon is horribly difficult to get to a point where performing on bassoon is even possible.
The first 30 seconds of watching this makes me think this guy would be a great teacher. I think his tip of playing it in chunks, even the first two notes alone, is a great one for any piece on any instrument.
@kas8970 In my opinion, I think wind instruments are the hardest to play. As a string player, I have respect for every wind instrument players, regardless of their "level" or how good they are. Just like any other instrument, it takes serious dedication and motivation (as cheesy as that sounds).
Man.. I'm not a bassoon player, or even a concert instrument player, I'm a metal guitarist... But I have a great appreciation for classical music and instruments like this. Very talented and keeps a great tone at all times. I love it!
Kieran Kaempen hello! I am a trombonist in my high school's concert band and I really want to learn how to play bassoon but because of the cost of a bassoon I am not able to learn so I was told that if I buy it I will be able to learn so please help me reach my goal at www.gofundme.com/2nkcuzej
@Squid165 Well, I suppose he is a talented bassoonist BECAUSE he is gay. It is well known, that homosexual men have a better neuronal communication betweeen the two brain hemispheres. And he is certainly not wasted :-)
i never understood what makes someone want to pick up as bassoon as a child... looks so awkward and cumbersome... makes a beautiful sound when you know how to use it though
Fantastic video! I came hear just to see what a bassoon sounds like, but your information on heavy and light rhythm is helping me a lot with my whistling.

I really need a Bassoon. I am currently a saxophone player but I love the bassoon and I've been playing alot of Bassoon Exerpts with my Baritone Saxophone. Could someone tell me how similar Saxophones are to Bassoons, and could such a transition be easy?
his neckstrap makes mine (tenor sax neckstrap from mills, tch.) seem inferior. -weeps- and his bassoon is so pretty! the wood is soooo lustrous...amazing tone, too. i have a B&H 400, the tone is pretty good (for a highschool student) but his is so smooth! sooo gorgeous. sounds like chocolate...:)
@pwatt45 He played the solo in the beginning of the 2nd mvt, the YTSO asks for the cadenza in the middle of the mvt. Also, the Figaro excerpt is from a different place. His colleague's contra master class doesn't have anything to do with the excerpts whatsoever. Strange.
yes there are, a lot of half holes actually, especially with high G and G. I am only in 9th grade and have been playing for only two years but yes, there are half holes on modern Bassoon like there are on Oboe
i can kinda relate because french horn is also really difficult and at one point i used to try and learn oboe and bassoon but quit becuase i couldnt get the idea of the embechour becuase im used to clarinet and french horn
Oh, I liked this so much (both bassoon and bassoonist, I must say). Congratulations for being capable of that, I hope some day I can do it too.... (I'm still an amateur, I play the bassoon, or at least I try to play it since last summer, so... I'd better be patient).
Vous êtes, Cher Joost Bosdjik, un excellent Pédagogue. Mon professeur de Hautbois au Conservatoire, me faisait progresser de la même façon que celle que vous suggérez dans votre vidéo. C'est ainsi que l'on acquiert une bonne technique. Magnifique votre Timbre. Dans SHEHERAZADE... Merveilleux ! Bravo & Merci à vous !
The bassoon is an extremely fun instrument to play, with an extremely high range. The higher notes can be a little tricky, but the low notes are sultry awesomeness to play. I would highly recommend it, as every conductor I have played under (granted I am only a sophomore) has loved me instantly just for playing bassoon.

Wrong.
He's accent is magnificent, he is an amazing musician and he's good looking. How much better can this man get?

Yeah, I play the piano and recorder and this was an excellent video even for me.
I play bassoon and within a year of playing I was moved to Symphonic band because we need one :)
I got a leggree reeds ad before this..... it's iluminati
Jazz_cuber_394 _ Same!!!!!
Come to the Legere side. We are waiting 4u.
Lmao. It is indeed the Illuminati.

our band doesn't even hear us usually...
Why not Rite of Spring in this?
That wasn't a required bassoon excerpt for the 2011 UA-cam Symphony auditions.
Why is his perfect English dubbed, interfering with what he says and with his music?
I like how the default is to have captions on. Because that's who watches bassoon master classes--the deaf.
"[spirited playing]" is very useful.
Thanks! Really lovely.
He plays so wonderfully. I want him all to myself! {sigh}
@SuffocatedSong And if melting gold had a look, i would look like Joost !
How cute:)
"I will suggest that you... practice it..."
thanks!
🤣
vary helpful tips for playing
I play the cello and bass clarinet not the bassoon but those where very helpful
Maravilha de explicação tudo com legenda em português!!
@TheWitzig13 That's what I'm DOING!!!!!! I LOVE BASSOON!!!
I want more of these master classes! His technique is so clean and beautiful! Thank you.
HE'S SO CUTEE...i don't care if he's gay, he's a really talented man
Man.. I'm not a bassoon player, or even a concert instrument player, I'm a metal guitarist... But I have a great appreciation for classical music and instruments like this. Very talented and keeps a great tone at all times. I love it!
:( I'm the only bassoon in my band class, I'd like to think I sound a bit better than that.

...I've already done six things to him in my head...but anyway he really knows his stuff,he's a great talent...
i guess im not the only one who sweats when they play :)
He's a good-looking guy. Awesome.
Nice guy!
3:00 password to Willy Wonka's edible room ;)
@kas8970 I don't play bassoon, but i want to, and i was wondering what is so hard about it?
So I JUST picked up the bassoon today and... Holy crap o.O
I mean, I play bari sax usually, but holy shit sticks, that's amazing!
jeleopard are u pro now?
So talented, and Joost is so dreamy!
Is it me, or is his reed unusually large? Perhaps his mouth is small? Looks like a contra-bassoon reed to me.
@Squid165 Well, I suppose he is a talented bassoonist BECAUSE he is gay. It is well known, that homosexual men have a better neuronal communication betweeen the two brain hemispheres. And he is certainly not wasted :-)

pour moi souvenir d'enfance, my music teacher have Peter and a Wolf obsession ,bassoon wath an animal.
his name is so adorable- "Joost" :D
Extremely Talented!!
Aaaw, he's so cute
Fantastic video! I came hear just to see what a bassoon sounds like, but your information on heavy and light rhythm is helping me a lot with my whistling.
Is he from holland? Because i am and his surname is from holland
He is. He's from Noord-Brabant if I'm correct. I'm a Dutch bassoon player myself and on the moment I'm learning from his former teacher :)
Beautiful expressive musicality. Lovely clear tone with perfect articulation.
i play a basic bassoon (school instrument) and it sound nothing like that :(

Beautiful tone, technique and wonderful demo!

Like many here, I only tapped on this video to look at the bassoonist. God he’s hot.
@pwatt45 He played the solo in the beginning of the 2nd mvt, the YTSO asks for the cadenza in the middle of the mvt. Also, the Figaro excerpt is from a different place. His colleague's contra master class doesn't have anything to do with the excerpts whatsoever. Strange.
How many people agree with me that he's probably the youngest member in the LSO?
What type of bassoon is that
i played marriage of figaro last year... i got my ass kicked.
yes there are, a lot of half holes actually, especially with high G and G. I am only in 9th grade and have been playing for only two years but yes, there are half holes on modern Bassoon like there are on Oboe
i can kinda relate because french horn is also really difficult and at one point i used to try and learn oboe and bassoon but quit becuase i couldnt get the idea of the embechour becuase im used to clarinet and french horn

As the comment no longer exists, please remove this comment.
The contrabassoonist does that as well. Must be a bassoon thing :D
im looking at the Scheherazade excerpt....either they didnt upload the right part or he played the wrong one, because they dont match
How do you like the bassoon? I'm in 9th grade right now and I play oboe. We have another oboist and I really want to try bassoon!
He's dutch, not scandinavian. ;)
@TheRegulated well. it is mostly woodwind instrument and double reeds the most of them all, is what I am saying.
I'm in 9th grade right now and play the Saxaphone for marching band. I'm excited to be switching to this for concert season.
Yes hes good, pauses after each playing like he had an ortgasm.
That's very very cool that he's so passionate about theese melodies.
I think he just came thats it.
I just tried out for the bassoon today at my school, and I'm nervous that I won't get the bassoon '~'
look to the thumbnail... and you see Sheherazade... with the basoon player...
@electrogeek1996 cause we get the emotion of wanting to dance ;) i play tener sax
I just started playing today, I was a two year oboist :D But I just fell in love with it.

You're so shiny, my eyes! You burnt my eyes!
@kas8970 its not that embarrasing
Hartstikke leuk Joost. Groeten van Adrine en Peter uit Den Haag.
why do double reed players always move so much when they play?

@SuffocatedSong My heart was melted by the minute 5:36
Damn the Bassoons in my band class sound like ducks
his body moves like he is in slow-motion. great chap
The Marriage of Figaro is WAY too fast. I've never heard any orchestra play it that fast. Ever. Absurd.
there are many of them in spotify
Ok, so every performance ever from now on, will be played with your useless opinion in mind
music is a language this man speaks fluently lol
@DRCxGFX lol funny... i meant brand and such?
wouldn't mind just hearing him talk all day =)

damn he is fine. . . and i love the bassoon.
"the accents, and the DUTS, and the sluuhs"

Wonderful playing and great teaching.
Peter en Adrine, nu Berkel en Rodenrijs
