      @@rodrigoodonsalcedocisneros9266 Yeah because bassoon is even harder to get a nice tone out of (?) Double reed instruments are usually way harder to control overtones, so harder to shape your overall tone.. (there's a lot that can go wrong, more so as with single reed instruments)

    The timbre of bassoon truly and beautifully matches the essence of this song in miles original conception. Truly thoughtful nostalgic sounds, sweet and maybe a tinge sad. And the man behind the horn captured that perfectly too. Great freakin job!
