 I have been playing oboe for 4 years now, alto saxophone for 2 years, and this year I am learning to play bassoon.  I need help playing my high notes faster and in tune.  Also I can't seem to get out the lowest two notes (B and B flat) on the instrument.  Can anyone one help me.  I welcome any tips that you can give
 
 Thanks
 
 P.S.  Is there another site with a picture of a bassoon so I can figure out all the thumb keys?

 Drop your jaw but keep equal pressure on all sides. like your whistling. keep your throat open and push lots of air to those low notes.
