A great composer and a beautiful concerto.

What a treat. I learned more about an instrument I had always heard of since the time I was in 6th grade band class in the fall of 1978 but had never seen. I've heard these sounds in movie scores throughout my life and suspected they were made by a contrabassoon, but was never sure. Why did I wait so long? Fascinating. We only had band in my district when I was a student and nobody could afford one of these monsters even though I was in a pretty affluent school district.

They should reuse this in the Angry Birds Movie 3

Voi tissi, toi pääosa olis kuulunut vaik trumpeteille eikä millekään pilleille. Pilkkaa.

Man merkt selbst, bei einem Strauß Walzer die finnische Melancholie. Und daher auch den hang zum Death Metal.

I hope for this music come to Angry Birds Reloaded in Space

Very nice idea, but what bugs me is the perspective on this instrument. I feel as though you present this instrument as a replacement of the contrabassoon when they both have their uses. It feels more like you're trying to sell me a car rather than introduce a new instrument to the woodwind family.

This is just a worse version of a sarrusophone I am totally kidding, it looks and sounds lovely and I would love to try and play the contraforte.

Helenalla on mielettömän upea lauluääni.

Completely forgettable, no notable themes or textures

Bexzod, just a personal favor. Please always mention the school name Uspenkskogo where you and Stas studied. We, students of this school they call us uspenjata came out very strong because of our upbringing due to music atmosphere that we dearly thankful to our music teachers. ...love your music and looking forward to seeing you both, perhaps in Kansas city ❤

The low range sounds beautiful, but I predict much hand-wringing from HIPsters who will insist it's not what the composer wrote for.

Tämäkin vielä!

I like its sound far better than the conventional contrabassoon. Plus, the sound on the contra goes "backwards" whereas the 'forte projects the sound straight outward!!! This is one of the few times that change is actually a good thing (-:

Very tasty!

Oskar Merikanto Kesäillan Valssi 2013

Always, every word from Maestro is so interesting. So much information always from Maestro. So intellektuell coments. Super talented and effective person.

Joulumusalta kuulostaa. Tämä taas ei: Leif Segerstamin johtama Helsingin kaupunginorkesteri - Kesäilta Op. 1 (Oskar Merikanto) "Kesäillan valssi"

Ihana !❤

I've read that many French composers, e.g. Saint-Saëns, preferred the contrabass sarrusophone to the French contrabassoon. The sarrusophone is more powerful and agile, better in tune; but it has a weak high treble. And, it's timbre is somewhat saxophone-like. The Contraforte appears to combine the best qualities of the contrabassoon and sarrusophone into one instrument, then improve on both: a blending, true-bassoon timbre, excellent dynamic range and control, strong and extended upper treble range. An important achievement!

What is the name of the piece he was playing on the beginning?

Both the work and the performance are remarkable. A powerful reminder that Cerha should be celebrated for far more than his orchestration of Act III of :Lulu.

I learn many things from my favourite singer.

What's the song he plays at the beginning?

Rakastan tätä! Kiitos, kun laitat näitä!❤

💟💟💟💟💟💟

Vielä Toivoisin tähän alkuun. Lyhyesti ja ymmärrettävästi. Abstrakti alkuun kiitos.

Hyvä.

Ihan kiva. Ei kuitenkaan mene mulle ilman syvempää sisältöä ja esimerkkejä.

Superbe !

So these are the people who made my child hood😢

Now we need an equivalent for the bassoon, and one for the missing register in between.

Can we all agree that these really low winds are some of the coolest instruments. I’d just recently gotten my hands on my high school’s Noblet paper clip contrabass clarinet and it’s one of the coolest instruments I’ve ever played
