Observations of Bassoon Playing in Malmo, Sweden and Copenhagen, Denmark

Haberkern, Kerry Ann

Abstract Details

2013, Doctor of Musical Arts, Ohio State University, Music.
Over the course of two weeks in the spring of 2013, the author observed and interviewed bassoonists in Malmo, Sweden and Copenhagen, Denmark. The purpose of this research is to determine if unique pedagogical models exist in Scandinavia, and if they exist, do they contribute to the success of Scandinavian bassoonists. The author observed college age students enrolled in full-time university studies in bassoon, professional musicians, and artist teachers. The findings of this research indicate that pedagogical models prevalent in Malmo, Sweden and Copenhagen, Denmark are not sufficiently unique to the area to explain a concentration of successful bassoonists. This research details the observations of bassoon playing and teaching in Malmo, Sweden and Copenhagen, Denmark, and makes comparisons to bassoon playing and teaching in the United States. In addition to observations, possible areas for further research have been identified in the final chapter.
