World Master of the Contrabassoon: Susan Nigro
Abstract
This article highlights the main milestones of the creative biography of the outstanding virtuoso musician with a world name Susan Nigro, who opened a completely new page in the history of modern performance on counterfeit. Largely thanks to her, counterfeit received in the second half of the 20th century the honorary status of a solo instrument, for which today composers from different countries have written dozens of original multi-genre compositions (concerts, rhapsodies, suites, plays, etc.). The study concludes that Susan Nigro made a significant contribution to the popularization of solo performance and the development of counterfeit art. It is assumed that the materials of this work will form a more complete idea of counterfeit and its role in modern musical practice.
