If you don't play bassoon you won't truly understand that this man is great at bassoon. He is where he is because he is great. Bassoon is horribly difficult to get to a point where performing on bassoon is even possible.

i never understood what makes someone want to pick up as bassoon as a child... looks so awkward and cumbersome... makes a beautiful sound when you know how to use it though

@kas8970 In my opinion, I think wind instruments are the hardest to play. As a string player, I have respect for every wind instrument players, regardless of their "level" or how good they are. Just like any other instrument, it takes serious dedication and motivation (as cheesy as that sounds).

@bjlok330 your embouchure is constantly changing as you play low notes to high notes. If you don't have proper embouchure, you sound like a dying duck. no joke. You also notice he is playing with a neckstrap, which is extremely hard.
