"Morelli's playing is a joy to hear" The Gramophone
Frank Morelli, bassoon soloist, chamber musician and teacher, studied with Stephen Maxym at the Manhattan and Juilliard Schools of Music and was the first bassoonist awarded a doctorate by the Juilliard School. An Emeritus member of the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra, he recently retired as a founding member of the woodwind quintet, Windscape. He also made nine appearances as a soloist in Carnegie Hall. He serves on the faculty of the Yale School of Music and taught for many years at The Juilliard School, Manhattan School of Music, SUNY Stony Brook and the Aaron Copland School of Music. He performs exclusively on the Leitzinger Bassoon.
I am proud to be a Leitzinger Artist. For decades Stephan Leitzinger has had a reputation for the excellence of his bocals. His bassoons embody the same response and rich tonal qualities. That is why I have played exclusively on a beautiful Leitzinger Bassoon Model 1 for nearly ten years. More info
