Finally, Maestro Bobo's DVD masterclass is available. Produced in Japan, it contains some of the finest musical advice and insight for musicians, students of brass and tubists. Some of the works performed include: Strauss-Concerto #1, Stevens-Variations in Olden Style, Koetsier-Concertino, Madsen-Sonata & Schumann-Adagio & Allegro. The following are some words from Roger Bobo of his thoughts in producing a DVD masterclass - this will be some of the most valuable 2 1/2 hours spent in front of a screen:Throughout my student and professional days I have been inspired and motivated by watching many masterclasses (usually on television) presented by many of the great musicians of our time. It was many years ago that I first got the idea to try to create such a masterclass of my own but was always held back by thinking, No, I'm not ready yet. The difficult fact is that I still feel that same Not readiness. But having now completed 7 decades on this planet, it seemed prudent to proceed with the masterclass project, ready or not, and fortunately at this time a DVD seemed the perfect medium. --Roger Bobo.

BILLET DOUX, the name in French for an intimate letter, was chosen as title for this trio (6 minutes long) from 2005. As a letter to a loved one can posses both a loving and a light (perhaps frivolous) tone, and both a serious and a humorous style, so this music tries in the same way to.. drift or dance from one atmosphere to another, often in swinging rhythms inspired by the proportions of The Golden Mean (near to 2:3:5:8 et cetera), proportions to be found in nature in many variations. It is the hope and intention of the composer that the sounding music will also be light hearted, natural and cheerful. BILLET DOUX is dedicated to the musicians of the MADAME CLAUDE trio - Pia Kaufmanas (flute), Ida Speyer Gron (viola) og Tine Rehling(harp).Per Norgard (2005).
