Product-Information:
This joyous new disc takes us deep into the wondrous world of ‘all-things bassoon’ – original pieces, arrangements time-tested and well loved, and new versions for the instrument of old favourites. Longfellow described the bassoon as ‘a distant voice in the darkness’ – Laurence Perkins takes up the challenge in his arrangements of wordless songs by Fauré and Ravel; folk song finds its place – a nod to the instrument’s distinguished ancestry dating all the way back to the medieval period; and humour, of course, is never far away – the bassoon is after all (to paraphrase Ashlyn’s bizarre dialogue between voice and bassoon) an instrument as much suited to the innuendo-laden serenading of one’s lover as to the killing of rodents ...
Rezensionen
'The playing here is not just comical (where required), it's also very beautiful - a lovely example of music-making' (Manchester Evening News)
'I admire Perkins' playing very much; it is expressive and highly polished' (Classical Music Web)
'… one of the jolliest CDs to have crossed my desk in ages … the indefatigable Perkins has assembled some genuine rarities for our delight' (Mail on Sunday)
'Perkins is a compelling advocate of the instrument, not only in his painstaking work as orchestrator and arranger, and his enthusiastic and well-researched booklet notes, but most of all in his playing … This is a delightful disc which will be of interest to a much wider audience than merely the bassoon-crazy' (International Record Review)
