Yamaha YFG812 Professional Post War Style Bassoon
The YFG-812 has a heavier wall design featuring a rich, authoritative sound. It is ideal for players who prefer a round, warm tone, and who require the power to balance the volume of the modern symphony orchestra. Advanced design techniques and skilled Yamaha engineers have resolved intonation problems and tone quality inconsistencies traditionally associated with bassoons. Yamaha has created a bassoon that allows the artist to control the most subtle tone shadings in the most delicate passages, while opening up the sound beyond traditional limits.
