Pascal Gallois is one of the leading international bassoonists. His book on the bassoon, which is the latest in the Bärenreiter series of books on instrument playing techniques, systematically explains for the first time all the playing techniques and different ways of creating sound on the instrument. Using appropriate examples, it shows the player how to master these techniques and provides information for composers about the instrument’s possibilities as well as special notation.
