Reviews:

“My favorite piece on the album [Judith Farmer Plays Favorites] is Gernot Wolfgang’s Duo for Flute and Bassoon No.1, a jazz-inflected, fun, contrapuntally intricate tour de force for the bassoonist and flutist Susan Greenberg.”

Rafael de Acha, Rafael’s Music Notes

“Gernot Wolfgang’s Duo for Flute and Bassoon No.1 is an excellent work that showcases many of the qualities performers and listeners have come to enjoy from the composer’s catalog. The music is often rhythmic and jazzy, and Wolfgang is clever in how he uses some of the more idiosyncratic aspects of the instruments to lean into the jazz style.”

Ryan Reynolds, The Double Reed

“I recommend it to you strongly as a solid piece of contemporary music that will be quite accessible to your audience.”

Ronald Klimko, The Double Reed

“The piece may indeed be, as the composer claims, stylistically ‘between jazz and funk’, but to one listener it seemed, with all its charms, highly legit, Classical even.”

Daniel Cariaga, The Los Angeles Times

“This piece will find its players and its audiences.”
