It’s the night of the first public performance in 68 years of Dudley Donegal O’Day’s magnificent (and very underrated) Triple Bassoon Concerto (transcribed for two bassoons). But as the orchestra tunes up, First Bassoonist Solomon Schweitzer cannot be found. Where is Solomon? What has happened to him? 'The Absent Bassoonist' features imaginative takes on just what might have happened to Solomon, where he might be … and who with! Featuring stories by Carol Adams, Pamela Baker, Jamie Bucuy, Sarah Das Gupta, Jane H. Fitzgerald, Ronald T. Hardwick, GP Hyde, rani Jayakumar, Scott MacLeod, Marta Morawiecka, Darrell Petska, Sylvia Petter, Martin Phillips, Matt Potter, Susmita Ramani, S. Roy, Cheryl Snell, Michael Webb, Allan J. Wills and Melissa E. Wong.
