Customer Reviews of Hummel, Weber: Bassoon Concertos
The von Weber concerto as von Weber wrote it. A problem common to the re-issue of older--say, classical era--compositions is that editors tend to get a hold of them and change them around so that they have nothing to do with the original. The von Weber concerto is an example of this: the edition usually heard is brutally edited to the point that, in many places, whole measures have nothing to do with what von Weber actually wrote. <

>Here, the von Weber concerto is presented as it was actually written, without editors getting in the way. An excellent and faithful performance from one of the greatest bassoonist to ever live. <
> <
>Also, being a bassoonist myself, I can say that the Hummel concerto is an absolute monster, especially coming from the late classical era. Herr Thunemann's performance is almost disturbing in its perfection; the only performance I would recommend as comparable would have to be Dag Jensen's performance on the Capriccio label, also disturbingly clean. <

>Go for it.
A rarity
This recording is notable in giving us a rarely heard version of the Weber bassoon concerto, in which, during the introductory orchestral tutti, the second subject is given in the minor key. Hence this CD will perhaps be of more interest to specialist collectors of Weber or the bassoon concerto repertoire.
