C. M. von Weber: Bassoon Concerto in F major J 127 op 75 - I. Allegro ma non troppo

Abstract:
In this fragment of the masterclass, Professor Azzolini mainly explains aspects about articulation, differences between legato and staccato (parlato, as he says). In both cases, sound should not change its quality - with tongue control and without changing the tone. Azzolini also makes some corrections on dynamics and sound balance, air and energy, among other issues related to the first movement from the Bassoon Concerto op 75 by C. M. von Weber.
