This in-depth and often fascinating series reflects the wide-ranging interests of its narrator Christopher Millard, the principal bassoonist for the Canadian National Arts Centre Orchestra. Some of the best episodes are about the design and mechanics of particular instruments. In and interview with famed violinist Pinchas Zukerman, for instance, he has Mr. Zukerman demonstrate how angling his bow slightly changes the sound dramatically.
Hats off to Christopher. I’m taking the rest of the week off.
