Hearing the bassoon in unexpected places!
Have you ever been surprised to hear the bassoon in a most unexpected place? I came across 'The Tears of a Clown' by Smokey Robinson and the Miracles (Motown, 1967) and was delighted by the opening riff which is played on the bassoon. It's quite a tricky part to play but sounds great. Who says the bassoon is restricted to the classical music genre?
Another Pop song with a prominent bassoon part is 'Puppet on a String' by Sandie Shaw.
Have you heard any unexpected bassoon parts recently? Let us know either by leaving a comment or posting a link to the song.
