35 years playing bassoon here. Intellectually I understand all the components. Double tonguing, circular breathing, a high E key, really good reed (at least 1 in a hundred to speak so well in all registers), but I just cannot understand how you're doing it. Holy crap man. :)

@@jdiogon Agreed! The subject of adapting the reed is the crux of the constant challenge to the bassoon player to produce a beautiful woody sound free of rasping, squeakiness or thinned out… and so on. Three things astonish me here: Thé speed, evenness, fluidity and seamlessness of the finger work! The lightness of the key tap or touch pressure. One can but only imagine the hours, months and years of relentless slow drilling needed to attain such heights, staccato, ornament and smooth scales… How a piece composed by prodigy Paganini for an instrument as dexterous as say the violin can have been rendered humanly possible for the relatively cumbersome is beyond me After mastering this, all technical challenges must appear child’s play by comparison! Finally, I admire the player’s aplomb Centred and relaxed, playing with his entire body, still and supported, driving the line of the music like detonating firework Executed with a concentration that makes it appear breathtakingly risky yet effortless to the listener… Huge fan!

@@constantquestioning4010fantastic critique! I don't play woodwind of any kind, but you've just explained how tremendously effortful and delicate the bassoon is to play and how much technique is involved. Truly amazing. You make it sound as though it might be the most (or one of the most) difficult instruments to master. Is that the case? I hadn't factored in circular breathing. He truly makes it look effortless.

A simply extraordinary feat! New possibilities never heard by me in all my years as a seasoned admirer of all things bassoon! Such technical proficiency in one so young is awe-inspiring. The ultimate pre concert warm up one imagines. Indeed, any piece however fiendishly tricky - from the opening of the Marriage of Figaro overture to the complete works for bassoon of Mozart, Weber, Hummel, Rossini et al onward - must feel like a stroll through the park by comparison. Once you’ve mastered this physically impossible piece scored for … violin, anything must seem possible. Théo Plat’s Wigmore Hall recital (on YT), includes a magnificently executed Saint-Sæns piece, is delightfully expressive, by turns legato and staccato, as appropriate - clearly the result of such an exceptional level of technical skill, freedom, power and control over dynamics and feeling. As the years go by, players seem to me more and more technically accomplished, innovative and daring - and at an increasingly younger age. Mille félicitations à ce jeune prodige !
