I was a bassoonist long ago (01-08). Played this piece too. Sometimes having to hold that by myself or holding up a weak low voice section. The last time I played it was in 07 with the freshman band and myself and the bass clarinet player took a breath at the very same time, leaving a break in that low G. It was hilarious. A fun piece. Listen to it every year
