Equipment: Recommendations

A bassoon is a significant investment for both individuals and programs. Please feel free to contact me for assistance in finding the best fit for your players, ensembles, and budgets.

The handout below lists the characteristics of ideal instruments to be purchased for shared use in a school setting. If you are purchasing through a school system or with booster funding, a used instrument may still be the best fit, though you may need to factor in an extra month to your timeline to have independent sellers confirmed as accepted vendors.
