He employs a variety of techniques, ranging from a physical approach—playing the bassoon in sync with his own heart rate—to the use of equipment such as effects pedals and heart rate sensors. The program is organized around two main themes: works literally inspired by the heart itself, and works that metaphorically “touch the heart” (or hold personal significance).\n\nThe repertoire spans a wide range, transcending eras and genres—from a bassoon arrangement of Deep Purple’s classic “Child in Time” to Baroque music by Purcell and Bede, works by Syrian clarinetist Kinan Azme, and even Dürfer’s own original compositions. TRPTK’s ultra-high-resolution recording (PCM 352.8 kHz, 32-bit) captures the sound woven by saxophone, period instruments (archlute), drums, and string quartet with exceptional spatial depth.\nTokyo M Plus\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TRPTK X","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52699440939297,"sku":"6096000687666","price":143.0,"currency_code":"RON","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/6096000687666.jpg?v=1779022653","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-ro\/products\/6096000687666","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
