Bach cello suite movement--on contraforte

Image
This is not quite as resonant as on a cello or bass but a LOT less farty than on a contrabassoon.  How DARE I say the contrabassoon sounds farty? Easy. I don't know what else to call it. Anyway, a bit of Bach is almost always a good thing no matter what the instrument. 5:?? hours of sleep counting falling asleep in chair for 1.5 hours and I am not sure how long in bed because the CPAP stopped after 3:?? hours and I am going from clock time. CHocolate ice cream for LUNCH is heavenly but not something to do too often.

Contraforte: remade contrabassoon

Image
 Fun to know instruments are still being improved. One of my dad's bassoonist friends had a contrabassoon. The contraforte is just a lot less farty than contrabassoons on Youtube.It's in FRENCH 5:22 hours of sleep. Amazing what happens when one goes to bed at a reasonable hour. Very satisfying to turn a bunch of ingredients into turkey rice tofu vegetable stew. Enough probably for a whole week On a different note I HATE THIS ARTHRITIS SHIT. Exhausting to totoe home a gallon of distilled water.
