Reed Characteristics:

RK bassoon reeds generally produce a warm and sweetly pleasing tone, with easy response. They are wrapped in cotton thread and sealed with wax, showing the maker’s care for using natural materials.

They are slightly longer than the standard American reed, measuring at 56mm in total length. This means these reeds may pair especially well with instruments that sit a bit high in pitch.

These bassoon reeds are offered in two shapes: Rieger 1A (teal) and Herzberg (red). Select a reed option to see more specific information about the two types of RK bassoon reeds.
