Bassoon swoon; The South Minneapolis Bassoon Quartet combats the big instruments.(FREETIME)
|
1/3 The bassoon is the Rodney Dangerfield of the orchestra: It don't get no respect.
Laura Preves, a member of the South Minneapolis Bassoon Quartet, admits that the instrument has an image problem. With its 8.3 feet of coiled tubing held diagonally across the body, the bassoon resembles a bazooka more than a musical instrument. "It looks so weird, and we look weird playing it," said Preves, laughing.
She and her colleagues in the quartet, all women, also admit that there's not a lot of demand for what they do. But they're hoping to change that.
