Composer: Carl Maria von Weber
Performers: Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Philharmonic Orchestra
Performer: Karen Geoghegan (Bassoon)
Conductor: Juanjo Mena
Recording date: 19 June 2012

While the bassoon is often given a 'role' as either gruff grandfather or comical drunk, Weber gives us joility and seriousness. From the beginning the bassoon almost bounces to centre stage while the concerto's ending is pure exuberance!
