This masterclass invites bassoonists to unlock deeper musical expression by identifying how technique, sound
production, and phrasing come together to create a compelling musical narrative. Attendees will learn practical
strategies for removing technical barriers, expanding expressive vocabulary, and crafting interpretations that feel
both personal and communicative. Repertoire is open, allowing performers to bring works from any era or style,
from Baroque to contemporary, highlighting how expressive principles apply across musical contexts. Designed for
developing and advanced bassoonists alike, this session offers concrete skills that help players more confidently
and freely tell their musical stories.
