Bassoon
¯The bassoon is one of two double reed instruments in the woodwind family. This means that the sound is produced by a reed that consists of two separate pieces that vibrate against each other.
¯Students who study bassoon are required to take outside private lessons.
¯Reeds generally cost $10-12 a piece, but last longer.
¯The bassoon requires a good ear, as it’s pitch can vary greatly within a single note.
¯The bassoon is a school-owned instrument.
