This Blog and Video Tutorial was a SPECIAL REQUEST by My Band Director and Class Woodwinds FRIENDS.

History of the Bassoon
How Long to Soak a Reed
Instrument Assembly
Names of Each of the Pieces
And Basic Posture
Here’s to Starting off on the Right Foot with Bassoon! And Being the Little Engine- THAT CAN!
