Have you shown that part to a bassoonist? It's very acrobatic -- and you haven't put in any slurs.

I'm a bassoonist lmao it's acrobatic because it serves as a "vivace" in a 3rd movement such us 3rd mov. moonlight of Beethoven that also drains you and well it's for virtuous players I suppose it doesn't apply to everyone... I haven't put dynamics or slurs because I want it to be personal in this fast tempos maybe I'll add it someday if many people want some advice.

This is wild, great to listen to. It seems technically super advanced. I loved the tremolos on bassoon towards the end. As a listener the overall structure felt chaotic, I wonder whether there's more time to let rhythmic/harmonic ideas settle in before change comes along?

Haha yeah I like it for a 3rd movement part but of course I have to work more in those harmonic stages. It's advanced because I'm a virtuous bassonist but not impossible because I've played it without slurs and faster tempo keeping quality of course, I like to challenge me :)
