    We bassoonists love Shostakovich. He truly understood the instrument, its abilities, and its sounds. There are occasional excerpts that may force us to change reeds or bocals, but not many. His penchant for long, haunting bassoon solos like this are much appreciated.

    Lovely! Shosti wrote such wonderful bassoon parts, he had a deep affinity for the instrument and I think it reflected his personality more than any other.

    The number of epic bassoon solos in Shostakovich symphonies makes me wonder why he never took a step further and wrote a bassoon concerto.

      We can only hope that, maybe, miraculously, a lost and forgotten autograph or a sketch of one will be found... A bit far fetched, but hope dies last 😅

      @@msg776 a good example of what might have been would be the long bassoon solo that connects the fourth and fifth movements of the ninth symphony. It fits your description of the ideal Shostakovich bassoon concerto.

    He holds an unchallenged position as an interpreter of Shostskovich.
    And
    he is a great Alchemist of the bassoon embodying the aesthetics of Shostskovich
