Dr. Douglas Bakenhus will hold a baroque bassoon recital Monday, March 14 at 7:30 p.m. at the Louisiana School for Math, Science and the Arts Recital Hall. Admission is free and open to the public. He will be accompanied by Dennette McDermott on flute, Ruth Drummond on cello and Elena Kuroda on harpsichord.
Bakenhus, the director of orchestral studies at Northwestern State and musical director and conductor of the Natchitoches-Northwestern Symphony Orchestra, will perform on a replica of a bassoon built in 1723.
The program will include “Sonata No. 1 in F major” by Michel Corrette,
“Sonata No. 1, in A minor” by Johann Ernest Galliard, “Duo for Flute and Basso in E major” by Giuseppe Tartini, “Duo No. 3 for two Bass Instruments in D minor” by Joseph Bodin de Boismortier, and “Trio Sonata in G major” by Johann Joachim Quantz.
Bakenhus said the work by Tartini was discovered by McDermott while doing research in the Royal Danish Library in Copenhagen and probably has not been performed in almost 300 years.
