A concert with a bassoon ensemble is a unique musical experience that combines warm, deep and playful sounds! Modest Mussorgsky's "Pictures at an Exhibition" stands at the center of the programme, transcribed by the great bassoon soloist Dag Jensen, and moves us to a world full of harmony and original sound styles. An evening that promises to surprise and captivate the audience by revealing the wide expressive range of the instrument, from velvety bass notes to dynamic, humorous, virtuosic passages!
