I have played bassoon 30 years, i love my instrument but in italy you can't eat whit it! Really good video and sound.

[Piassondra]

William Waterhouse was actually my great-uncle on my dad's side. He was with Grandpa in his villa in Italy when he died.

[ConstableBassoon]

@Piassondra Ummm... William Waterhouse was a little too old to be with his grandpa at the time of his death?

[Walle2196]

I play the bassoon and its a ahmazing instrument i used to to play the flute but i switched,

i personaly think the wood bassoon sounds better than plastic because i play a wood bassoon.

[PinkLipGlossKS]

@Walle2196 omg i switched from flute too!! im so glad i did...bassoon is such a unique and wonderful instrument i could just play it forever!!
