THANK YOUS AND CREDITS!

I would like to thank and credit the following people for their information and help.

Thank you to ABC Clinician and Penn State Bassoon Professor Daryl Durran for much of the information used in this website. His insights and knowledge on the bassoon helped me to become a better music educator and bassoon teacher which will, in turn, help my kids become better bassoonists. Daryl Durran is the Associate Professor of bassoon at Pennsylvania State University and bassoonist with the Pennsylvania Quintet.

Thank you to Ryan who graciously agreed to be my student bassoon model and took time out of his summer to help me realize this project. You are the best!

Thank you to ABC Band College for the opportunity to research, review and reinvent the knowledge gained in our clinics this summer (2006)

Thank you to Yamaha for the graphic used on the homepage. I could not find the site to provide a link, but know that it is a Yamaha graphic.

Bassoon Embou-Sure by Richard Polonchak was also used a resource in this website.

All other graphics not taken by me were obtained from a Yahoo! Image search on bassoon.
