Turns out the poor-quality phone recording fairies were around when we were playing. Here's the most bassoon-heavy piece:


I can watch it. :confused:
Might be a 'friends of tagged people' can see it privacy setting cos' I can see it too.


It must be because I'm with @Fazerfan

I am not able to see the video as well. I would really like to so if there is anything you can figure out @PeterJB so I'm able to vie it, i would very much appreciate it! :)
 
If you like that, then here's a nice introduction to the bassoon (aka fagot) and some other instruments. As a child I enjoyed listening to this musical story very much.

Peter and the Wolf by Serge Prokofiev


Thankyou for sharing this. While i couldn't name a single instrument in that orchestra, I really enjoy the sounds from each one. I swear that a lot of that sounded familiar too.
idk if its culture or demographics or what... but u just don't find kids where I'm from that would appreciate this kind of stuff.

Peter and the Wolf is a very famous piece, used on TV all the time. There are some very famous orchestras in California such the San Francisco Symphony and the LA Philharmonic, so there is a strong classical following, I suppose it depends on one's upbringing as to whether you get much exposure to classical music though.

I was forced to listen to that in primary school up to year 3.

AWHAA Yess! thats definitely why some of it sounded familiar. Ya i see your point about an individuals upbringing. But i think where you are from has a lot to do with it too. At least it seems like to me that a lot of other countries still make a point to teach the younger generations the history of music. Where I'm from i feel that unless you go seek out that info, you will never be confronted with it

@haitch40 said ; I was forced to listen to that in primary school up to year 3.
See this is completely non-existent in the public school where I'm from to my knowledge
