"The bassoon is a woodwind instrument in the double reed family that typically plays music
written in the bass and tenor registers and occasionally even higher. It is called das Fagott in German, il fagotto in Italian, el fagot in
Spanish, and le basson in French. Appearing in its modern form in the 1800s, the bassoon figures prominently in orchestral, concert
band, and chamber music literature. The instrument is known for its distinctive tone color, wide range, variety of character, and agility.
Its warm, dark, reedy timbre has often been compared to that of a male baritone voice. Due to the complicated fingering and the
problem of reeds, the bassoon is an especially difficult instrument to learn; schoolchildren typically take up the bassoon only after
starting on another woodwind instrument, such as the flute, clarinet, or saxophone


The modern bassoon exists in two distinct primary forms, the Buffet system and the Heckel system. The Buffet system is
played primarily in France but also in Belgium and parts of Latin America, while the Heckel system is played in the majority of the world.


The modern bassoon is generally made of maple, with medium-hardness types such as sycamore maple (Bergahorn in German,
Acer pseudoplantanus) and sugar maple (from North America) being preferred. Professional models are often made of Bergahorn
(translates as "mountain maple", but distinct from the North American tree of that name). The most sought-after
variety of Bergahorn for bassoons is the flamed "Riegel-Bergahorn" variety. Less-expensive models are made of materials
such as polypropylene and ebonite, primarily for student and outdoor use; metal bassoons were made in the past but have not been
in production by any major manufacturer since 1889.


Bassoon reeds, made of Arundo donax cane, are often made by the players themselves, although beginner bassoonists
tend to buy their reeds from professional reed makers or use reeds made by their teachers."
