  • In this video, I demonstrate how to teach a bassoonist as if it were their first time picking up the instrument.

      At the same time, you can set up your instrument, which also takes some time.

    The difference between names is really interesting between UK and US. For example the bogle(?) is called a crook in England and the bass joint is called a long joint. There were a few more examples

    im switching to the bassoon from flute because of my overbearing tone.
    i just started flute last year which is unfortunate but ive always loved deep sounding and strange instruments
    also, i don't like the light-headed feeling when you play too much incorrectly

      As a flute player, I've been considering switching to bassoon over the summer but I already know it's gonna be a big jump and take a lot of time. Just debating on whether or not I wanna go through with it lol I loveee the sound of the bassoon.

    How does someone decide one day to play the bassoon? People say that about the guitar, drums, violin and piano, not the bassoon. Maybe she got stuck with it in her high school band.

    In all my years of playing bassoon I have never encountered adding the G key to play E. I'll give it a try.
    Update: tried it with a tuner and it made E horribly flat. Of course I have been playing E without the G key for 30+ years...

      Usually one reed by itself lasts 2-3 months, if you practice a lot then one reed by itself will only last 1 month, it depends mostly on how much you play

      It doesn’t require it, but it is pressed down on bassoon for better tone quality and tuning most of the time!

    • @jwd0808
      @jwd0808 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Never added it in my 25 + years of playing the bassoon... Adding keys to improve pitch/tone, just means that one does not of the proper embouchure / breath control. Learning to breath correctly should have been the first lesson!
