From Reed to Recital is an opportunity for Bassoonists to play together in small ensembles with professional guidance from Robert and Maria. Classes in reed-making and contrabassoon are available on request and individual coaching will be offered but there will be at least one ensemble running in all sessions.
The tutors will give a recital on the Saturday morning and the course will close with a concert by participants (voluntary participation!) of pieces they have been working on during the weekend. An accompanist will be available for part of the weekend.
