I would venture to guess that your normal instrument is the Bell. It seems to be much more responsive in all registers. The 13K Heckel seemed to be much more work and was less responsive while having a darker sound. Great choice of standard repertoire to display the characteristics of each instrument. ❤
Impressive! To me, the Heckel is more centered, the Bell a bit brighter, but they’re really close. You sound good on both. 2 questions: what was the last excerpt (I’ve played all the others) and may I ask how much the Bell costs?
Thank you for posting this wonderful video! Can I, by any chance, repost your channel on the Gan Jing World platform? Of course I will keep everything as is and also include your channel as source.
To my ears: Heckel is more open. Clearer tone. Bell is darker, a bit more resistant but somewhat more mellow. In MIgnone and Tchaikovsky I liked Bell the most. Everything else Heckel. But, same category of instrument IMO.

8:57 what is the name of this piece?
The action on the Bell is very loud compared to the Heckel.
I heard that, too. Distractingly louder.
Both are pretty loud and should be adjusted.

the Bell seems 'thinner' - less rich to me. Had a wonderful chinese bassoon in school
then a gebruder moenig - not well tuned!
It's a Valsa for bassoon solo from Francisco Mignone. I can't remember which one. There are 12 or 16 I think.
I sure miss my Heckel.
Bell wins this round IMO. I'd love to hear the spray painted bassoon stacked up against one of these beauties for some real contrast.

Das Bell passt besser zu Dir und klingt freier. Gefällt mir sehr gut.

The Bell keywork is very clacky
