Bach's Lunch
Virtual Chamber Music Festival

Harpsichord vs. Bassoon, Who Wins?
featuring Adrian Morejon, bassoon

In a thoughtful conversation with Adrian, Stephanie and Jeffrey learn all about where he got his inspiration to play the harpsichord and eventually the bassoon. You'll want to note his Netflix recommendations, which include When They See U s, and Dear White People . They also talk about the recent landmark win for LGBTQ community handed down from the Supreme Court . Of course he also explains why he chose the Bach piece he'll play for us today.

A special thanks to Evan Richards for helping us put these videos together and managing our YouTube channel.
J.S. Bach: Sarabande fro m Cello Suite no. 2 in D minor, BWV 1008. Transcribed by Adrian Morejon.
For your main dish, we journey from witty frivolity to stoic darkness and back in Poulenc's  Le bal masqué  from the 2018 season. Adrian chose this selection to celebrate all the musicians from BDDS and the incredible collaboration in putting this work together. Also, it has both beautiful and fun bassoon lines throughout! 

And for dessert... the Tango and Charleston from Bohuslav  Martinů's Suite from  La revue de cuisine  with special guest Blake Washington.
