Yuushi Oshitari, do not get me started.

"Because it was invented" is not a reason, sensei.

1. The bassoon has a rounder, more hollow sound than the oboe, creates a warmer sensation in its inclusion in some pieces, however, in the higher range has a voice that almost mimicks the human timbre and therefore gives way to a somewhat ethereal noise. Key tools to the composer, creation of a mood in basic sound before a melody is ever created.

2. The bassoon, as the base, keeps the other woodwinds in tune.

3. It is a proof of a musician's character, as it is more difficult to play than the oboe, and requires a great deal of training and effort in terms first of mouthwork and then of fingering that works the entire hand extensively. Not to mention the differences in tonguing inherant in the bassoon, which is closer to the flute than the oboe is, and more versatile in that respect.

4. In the orchestra of life, Oshitari-kun, I would choose you as the bassoon.

Because nothing says 'respectable' more than being well versed in tonguing, extensive fingering and mouthwork? Oh my~ I had no idea music lessons at Hyoutei were so interesting.

Tell me, do you teach all this 1-1 or is it all done in group sessions?

[becomemywings]

I think you forgot to write words after the number there. :3

[invented_cool]

That I did not.

[becomemywings]

Huh...well in that case to make this interesting shouldn't you have listed why it isn't a good instrument?

[invented_cool]

It doesn't do anything that an oboe can't, yet an oboe is equally repulsive and just as tinny.

[notsoawake]

What's so bad about it?

[invented_cool]

...It's a bassoon.

[notsoawake]

... Yeah. But what's so bad about it?

[invented_cool]

It sounds like a dying cow.

[diligences]

Oshitari-san!

[invented_cool]

I am not a reason for the bassoon.

[diligences]

... I thought it was a joke.

[invented_cool]

It is indeed a joke. That doesn't mean that I'm a fan of the bassoon.

He just died a little from laughter xD

[salutethesky]

ahaha Nice Yuushi~

Bassoons are SRS BSNS

[invented_cool]

What can I say? The bassoon is the red-headed stepchild of the orchestra.

so it would seem XD

[salutethesky]

.......

[invented_cool]

And since when were you a stepchild?
