French bassoon[edit]

I think we should do as the French do, and treat the "basson" and the "fagotto" as different instruments with different ranges and timbres. Any violinist that can play period music can play it on a modern instrument. I think this also ties into the article about the instruments' high ranges. 2603:7000:D03A:5895:61C9:CE16:5785:DDE0 (talk) 23:25, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
