“Unique in its scope and breadth, and thus stands alone as a general history of reed making pedagogy.”
— Dennis Michel, Bassoonist, The Chicago Symphony Orchestra and Head of Woodwinds in the Chicago College of Performin
“Withheld by leading pedagogues in an effort to control competition, the art of reed making in the early 20th century has been shrouded in secrecy, producing a generation of performers without reed making fluency. While tenets of past decades remain in modern pedagogy, Christin Schillinger details the historical pedagogical trends of bassoon reed making to examine the impact different methods have had on the practice of reed making and performance today. Aimed at practitioners and pedagogues of the bassoon, this book provides a deeper understanding of the history and technique surrounding reed-making craft and instruction.”
