The electric bassoon is an under-utilized instrument for sure.
OTOH - I am familiar with that instrument from my orchestra days, and have seen that after an evening of playing, bassoon players empty about a quart of slobber from their instrument. So yucky!
I think this would have been cooler if he just played it using the natural acoustic sound of the instrument. Then I might have listened to more than 1:20 of it...maybe...
