 Re: Intonation difficulty in the simplest case

To make it simple, adjusting your sound "darker" makes it easier to blend and sound as if you were in tune. Adjusting your sound "brighter" makes your sound to carry.

I have played professionally for over 30 years and have never been satisfied with my minor third a-flat with second bassoon's f in the beginning of Sibelius's Finlandia. One bassoonist colleaque said, that it's because the overtone that sounds a major third in that particular note in the bassoon is quite loud.

By the way when playing in a big cathedral, have you ever felt, that the echo of your sound feels slightly flat compared to your original sound?
