LESSON PLAN
I love your bassoon masterclasses. They are absolutely fabulous, highly educational and immensely entertaining as well. The filming and sound are also incredible and I feel like I am there! My only critique with this instructor is that he is a bit harsh and if I were his student, I would find it hard to warm up to him. I feel like sometimes he is critical just for the sake of being critical. But that is entirely a matter of opinion and does not detract from the excellence of these classes. Keep them coming!!!
A great musician at pedagogic work! No focus on systematic teaching but much more on inspiring to take risks, to make music at its best! What a pleasure to listen to and see such a differenciated and inspiring Nussio. Like more!
I liked this video a lot. The information given and the teaching were terrific.
