Performance of the Mozetich Bassoon Quartet

The bassoon quartet I’m in, the Boulder Bassoons, recently played for one of the member’s doctoral recitals, and we managed to get a recording of the performance.  The performance wasn’t perfect, but it was pretty darn good, so I’m linking the recording here, for your listening enjoyment.

The piece we performed was “Odes to the Americas”, by Marjan Mozetich, commissioned by the Caliban Bassoon Quartet.  The three movement piece is written for three bassoons and a contrabassoon, and is a lot of fun to play and to listen to.  Enjoy!
