    Hi, Andrew. You briefly talked about the challenges of playing the bassoon in a basso continuo setting. Do you have a video that delves deeper into said challenges? Failing that, could you consider making a video? That would be so cool. (-:

    Fantastic advice and many ood points to take note. BTW, your reeds are fantastic too!

    Had to get some ideas about baroque bassoon to arrange some pieces and I discovered your video. It's super helpful and even so fun. Thank you so much!

    Great video Andrew! I just started on baroque bassoon on a Prudent by Peter de Koningh and it sounds a lot like your Eichentopf. Thanks and keep up the great work!

    Sound advice, Andrew. I, too, have a de Koningh Eichentopf, bought second-hand. It was a bastard to play until I took it to meet its maker (not something I want to do myself anytime soon). Peter re-reamed the bore, which made all the difference - reducing resistance and sorting out a lot of the intonation. This is a necessary action that had been neglected by the previous owner. And, like you, it also took over a year to settle on reeds. The combination, especially before re-reaming, nearly provoked an expensive winter log fire! Now, we no longer fight each other and I love playing it. But I would be interested in your reed dimensions as I am still experimenting.

      Sorry to hear you had so much trouble in the beginning. I offer reeds and GSP cane for the instrument via bassoons.ch, so you try exactly what I use.

    So, at least three different length bocals there?

      zamppa63 hi there, I only have one bocal for my baroque bassoon.

      zamppa63 yes, this is very beneficial for the modern instrument. Sadly there is no standard size or dimension with baroque instruments, so it’s not as easy to pair a bocal from one maker to another as it is with the modern bassoon
