Our Take

Ah, the MICHAEL FINN Sextet 1986 For Bassoon String Qttin, a true gem in the world of quirky instrument combinations. This album, released in the year of big hair and shoulder pads, is a delightful mix of classical and jazz influences that will leave you tapping your toes and scratching your head in confusion.

From the first notes of "Bassoon Boogie," you'll be transported to a world where the bassoon reigns supreme and the strings dance around it like graceful ballerinas. The juxtaposition of the deep, woody tones of the bassoon with the light, airy strings is a daring move that pays off in spades.

Tracks like "Funky Fugue" and "Jazzy Jig" showcase the Sextet's versatility and skill, with each member bringing their unique flair to the table. The bassoonist wails with all the soul of a jazz saxophonist, while the string quartet adds a touch of elegance and sophistication.

But it's not all smooth sailing for the MICHAEL FINN Sextet. Some tracks, like "Bassoon Blues," fall flat, with the bassoon's mournful wails feeling more like a cry for help than a melody. And the final track, "String Quartet Serenade," ends the album on a disappointingly predictable note.

Overall, the MICHAEL FINN Sextet 1986 For Bassoon String Qttin is a mixed bag of delights and disappointments. While it may not be a masterpiece, it's certainly worth a listen for those looking to expand their musical horizons and indulge in something a little out of the ordinary. Grab your monocle and your top hat, dear reader, and prepare to be serenaded by the strangest ensemble you've ever heard.
