Re: Bassoon Dad in Search of German

I'm sure it is an overstatement to say that the 'standard' bassoon in Germany is the Heckel - just as it is in USA. Maybe it is the most common among professionals but there undoubtedly many players who choose to use Puchner, Moosmann, Walter, Fox & other makes.
In my view, provided the instrument is of a good quality & in good condition, there should not be any problem - it is up to the player to choose which instrument suits him best within his budget. Would you insist on every clarinet pupil playing a particular brand of instrument?
