Ik I'm 2 1/2 years late to this video, but you deserve INFINITE respect for those high parts, like the alternating between the high Cs and Dbs, and those grace note runs from the high Dbs to the high Fs/Ebs. This is absolutely insane, and congratulations on this performance holy crap
Thanks man! This was extremely frustrating to prepare for recording and I pretty much wore out my legere reed in the process of trying to navigate the highest notes with some sort of dexterity. Only other bassoonists can really recognize that. I appreciate it
AAAHHHH that ending! Man, you're doing such great stuff here. Your video editing is slick and refined, adding subtle emphasis to musical features, and the arrangement is very cool and deftly executed! I noticed there's a dominant chord in the original that you've turned into a minor, which lends a unique personal touch to this (among all the other cool personal gestures you've added). I am so tempted to try your arrangement on EWI!
I would love to see an ewi cover of this by you! (even if this comment is 2 years old lol). if you're talking abt the chord at 0:25 then yeah: I think it gives it a more reedy/bassoony vibe.
Oh my god this is why I love bassoon so much! Great job! Also thank you for being one of the only people that I can find that will play bassoon on the internet.
I for one love the bassoon! Being an oboe player I appreciate and respect how hard this is! Also the effects made me almost die of laughter. Very nice touch on the major chord at the end. Thank you so much for this! Listening to the bassoon play such a wonderful song.... fills you with DETERMINATION.
Hopes and Dreams is a very special song that would take the largest approach and most special approach IMO. I may tackle it someday, but know that it would one of the largest collaborations that I would ever underTAKE hahahahah
High school freshman with only about a year on bassoon: sees tenor clef That same freshman: sees notes that would go above treble clef EXCUSE ME HOW? What demonic fingerings are being kept secret from me?!
they all have a pattern. keep working! I'm in 8th grade and am working on those same fingerings for high school and sometimes even middle school! keep working, you've got this!
JackLPup oh I know the how to read the clef, and I know the fingerings, but I started in 8th grade and it took me the longest time to find a bassoon book that had the correct fingerings, since most books have incorrect or improper finger charts.
JackLPup not only that, but my band director really didn’t try to help me even though I desperately needed it, and I’m supposed to be in my school’s top band, but my bd procrastinated too much and I’m stuck in the intermediate band. Because of this, my growth as a musician had been very slow and I have to rely on other sources like learning songs on this channel to help with my own progress
Aw, I understand. I've done one on my channel with a group of woodwinds but not a bassoon quartet one. Though wanting to play music that hasn't been arranged or written yet is the reason that got me into arranging/composing! Maybe it'll be the first one you write?
Can you please give the sheet music? I want to see if my bassoon friends and I can play this for our school ensemble concert! (Can you believe that our school has 7 bassoons!!!)
*the spiders pull out mini bassoon's and play along*
There are actually mini bassoons, they are called tenoroons
Splodinate Kabloominate Idk why but that sounds so cute
Splodinate Kabloominate Tenoroon? What's next, altoroons and sopranoroons?
Playing along... SYNCHRONIZED
as a bassoon player who loves Undertale and its music, this absolutely blows my mind. Thank you
Yes! I'm not the only one who heard Phantom of the Opera in that part.
Yes! I knew I couldn't be the only one!
I hear it now

(and high Es too; realized I forgot abt those after listening to this again)
Thanks man! This was extremely frustrating to prepare for recording and I pretty much wore out my legere reed in the process of trying to navigate the highest notes with some sort of dexterity. Only other bassoonists can really recognize that. I appreciate it
"Man that's a cool projection on the wall behind him. Oh, never mind, he just records in Jurassic Park."
I really like your music. It's really cool that you're able to edit yourself together to sound like and entire group.
Man, one day I’ll be shredding megalovania then I’ll have to stop practicing a few days and my face has turned to jelly

THAT DOG CAUGHT ME OFF GUARD
You just got dogsonged!
Why thanks for admiring my face!
Dude, the edits made this video super entertaining to watch, I love this style!! Keep it up :D awesomeee
This channel is underrated I hope it explodes and gets popular
that one Kid Once it does one day, I'll always remember this comment.
Bassoonify , this channel should have way more love then it does like for real ....
Oh my god this is why I love bassoon so much! Great job! Also thank you for being one of the only people that I can find that will play bassoon on the internet.
Thanks! There's not a lot of us!
There really aren't!!
Wow! First time I hear a bassoon sound like a saxophone xD
I for one love the bassoon! Being an oboe player I appreciate and respect how hard this is! Also the effects made me almost die of laughter. Very nice touch on the major chord at the end. Thank you so much for this!

Oboe gang
You deserve way more credit for this
Hah, love this. Bassoons make everything better. :D
Oh my God, really good job on this one!
mannn you make me want to learn bassoon but I have no idea how to start.. this would have been easier back in high school :')
Find a music store that rents instruments. It's easier to do rent-to-buy then just buying one out of pocket :)
Is it bad that I prefer this to the actual OST?
Wow! Thanks :)
No
We're all looking forward to Hopes & Dreams / Save The World! You and your friends are amazing in all of your videos!
Hopes and Dreams is a very special song that would take the largest approach and most special approach IMO. I may tackle it someday, but know that it would one of the largest collaborations that I would ever underTAKE hahahahah
Very cool video man, I liked it a lot!
I love what you did with the movie frames.
THE DOG....
Absolute banger
Holy crap this is amazing dude, fantastic job on all fronts!
Thanks! Tricky stuff, that spider dance!
As a fellow bassoonist I can testify to this video description..
I had to learn high F for this one... I'm still not convinced I'm doing it right, haha
you deserve way more subscribers
Michael Ogu Thanks man! really appreciate it! You can definitely help with a small share to your buddies that might like this kind of stuff :)
nice job!

JackLPup and I can’t for the life of me find a hard strength reed. Everywhere I go, I can only find up to medium-hard
Great work mate! I loved it
this entire video defies logic, including the extra dogsong (though that was my favorite part)
very cooool!!!!
Thank you! :)
YES your songs are amazing :)
Bassoon Dance
Man, you're so cool!
I wish I had the whole entire soundtrack of a bassoon
I want to play this
OMFG!!!! I FREAKIN LOVE UNDERTALE!! PLS PLS PLS DO DUMMY AS A TRIO WITH TIFFANY AND JUSTIN! IT WOULD MEAN THE WORLD TO ME😆😅
I'm almost mad about the dog now.
Don't feel so sad now
what was that end xD
Dang...
Phantom Of the Opera
I'm glad I'm not the only one that heard that there
Hey your my teachers son
Hey! My mom is your teacher!
Nice video, I just want to know how do I put 2 or 4 videos and turn them into one video?
Like that video

We need bonetrousle
My friend wants to do a bassoon quartet but can’t find one on bonetrousle
Aw, I understand. I've done one on my channel with a group of woodwinds but not a bassoon quartet one. Though wanting to play music that hasn't been arranged or written yet is the reason that got me into arranging/composing! Maybe it'll be the first one you write?
Maybe
I need to learn how to write music first

CHALLENGE ACCEPTED
the challenge has not gone very well, will continue to attempt in a few hours when i have a high E key
the high E key has not saved me because my bassoon straight up refuses to play high F ;-;
Can you please give the sheet music? I want to see if my bassoon friends and I can play this for our school ensemble concert! (Can you believe that our school has 7 bassoons!!!)
That's awesome. Is your band director a bassoonist? Music is in the description by the way. The only way I can hit that high F is with a legere reed.
Unfortunately, he is a saxophone player ;_;
Thank you!
My bassoon teacher can play up to high F on a normal reed, maybe higher! And then there's me: O_O
*high high F*
Now to go google legere reed...
I'm just curious but how much is the bassoon?
A lot
$6000 for a new entry level bassoon.
VII^!!!
it's not easy for tuba either
this is not okay
First
