“The catalyst for this one, besides the anniversary, was the opportunity to again perform Craig Phillips’ ‘Bassoon Concerto’ (2002),” said Bill Wood.

“I will also be playing pieces with strings and bassoon by Astor Piazzolla (‘Muerte del Angel’), Los Angeles bassoonist and composer Damian Montano’s newly arranged version (for this performance) of ‘Film Noir,’ the middle movement from his 2012 bassoon concerto ‘Night Pieces,’ a lovely waltz-like gem of a piece; “Spring Lullaby” by Canadian bassoonist and composer Mathieu Lussier; and Alec Wilder’s ‘Air for Bassoon & Strings’ (1945),” Wood said.
