Duet With Me: Minuetto from Weissenborn Lesson VII (Slow and Fast Tempos)

Описание: Join me to work on the Minuetto duet from Lesson VII of Method for Bassoon by Julius Weissenborn. We’ll play it at two tempos: quarter note = 100 for a faster challenge and quarter note = 72 to practice it at a slower pace. If you're a beginner, the 1st bassoon part is for you, and if you're a more advanced player, try out the 2nd bassoon part for a challenge. Use the chapter markers below to skip between tempos or focus on individual parts as you practice. This is a great way to refine your timing, phrasing, and technique while playing alongside another part. Grab your bassoon and let’s get started!

00:00 Fast Tempo, Both Parts
01:50 Fast Tempo, Bsn 1
03:36 Fast Tempo, Bsn 2
05:20 Slow Tempo, Both Parts
07:44 Slow Tempo, Bsn 1
10:10 Slow Tempo, Bsn 2
