FASCH, Johann Friedrich

Sonata for bassoon and basso continuo in C major (version for two bassoons)

II. Allegro

Klaus Thunemann, professor

Lucía Molina Pardo, student

Alber Català Climent, student

The professor begins this masterclass pointing out that the tempo is “alla breve”, and he shows it by playing how the figuration for the bass line should be, the typical for this period and more elegant and independent.
Moreover, Thunemann corrects some notes from the edition in relation to the original manuscript.
Finally, Klaus Thunemann advises them to make more contrast between the different characters in order to obtain more variety and interest, and he corrects the articulation in a certain passage so they could get more clarity.
