Perfect combination of inspiration and systematization! The first cannot without the second to get top results!!! Ole Kristian did it! His approach is not the only one to succeed, but it is a consistent, user-friendly one, given in a very friendly, helpful style! Great!
I am a bassoon student and i was very interested in Ole Kristian Dahls bassoon exercises. This video is really good and i learned so much from it. Thank you!
The 'play with a pro' course was interesting and useful, especially for people without access to a teacher. The basic fundamentals covered all the important topics to get the player to improve habits. The order of presentation was well thought out.
This video got me really started after 10 years away from the bassoon. I am a guitar pedagogue myself, and I am able to recognize a pedagogue when I see him. Excellent!
