The best instrument EVER. It produces a dark, round, rich sound which is very unique, especially in the upper register.
Though it is extremely difficult at first, once you get the hang of using your thumbs more it gets easy; but it requires hours of practice and perseverance.
Not only that, but Colleges and Universities are always looking out for good Bassoonists because they earn very good scholarships and are usually very intelligent.
Number one rule to play Bassoon: You need to have a sense of humor. :)
