By Hugo Fox
2Hugo Fox From 1922 until 1949, Hugo Fox rved as principal bassoonist of the Chicago Symphony
Orchestra, where he acquired an almost legendary reputation as one of the outstanding bassoonists of his era. During fifteen years of this period, he was instructor of bassoon at Northwestern University, and many of his students became ranked among the prominent bassoonists of America.During this period, his studies of the acoustics of the instrument and a desire to experiment, prompted him to form the Fox Bassoon Company, which now produces the well-known instru-ments that bear his name.
I NTRODUCTION:
This booklet has been prepared for the bandmaster or
woodwind instructor who teaches the instrument, while
not being an accomplished bassoonist.
It is intended to rve as a handy reminder of some of
the more important points to consider when starting a
student, maintaining the instrument, and finishing reeds
or reed blanks.
The fingering chart is bad on competent professional
practices, and while not extensive in its treatment of
alternate fingerings, is sufficiently complete to be ud
with almost any properly constructed instrument.

S TARTING THE S TUDENT ON THE B ASSOONgis数据库
Either transfer the students from another instrument, or start them directly on bassoon. If you have access to a short-reach model bassoon, it is practical to start them in elementary..
Since the bassoon does not require a firm or tight embouchure, there is leeway in lecting suitable players. The teeth need not be straight, nor does the player need to have a normal bite. The lip tension is much less, for instance, than that ud in playing clarinet or oboe.

The reed should be taken into the mouth until the upper lip almost touches the first wire. The lips control the reed completely: the teeth play a minor role. The feeling of the lip should be one of grasping the reed all around, and the reed should be supported on the sides, as well as from above and below. The teeth should be apart when playing bassoon, much like when playing trombone. The air
stream must have a clear, unobstructed path through the蚯蚓怎么写
reed, continuing through the instrument.
So that the reed will enter the mouth in a comfortable and natural position, the body and instrument position should
be correct. The body should be erect, standing or sitting.
The head should also be erect and facing forward. The adjustment of the neck or at strap should be such that
the reed enters the mouth with the head in this position.
