Special Care for Wooden Instruments

The body of the bassoon is made from maple so it is sensitive to sudden changes

in temperature and humidity. Such changes can cause cracks in the body as well

as distortion that can make assembly of the joints difficult. Please pay close

attention to the environment in which the instrument is used and the manner in

which the instrument is treated.

● During the winter season, wait until the instrument is warmed up before playing.

● Do not play new instruments for long periods of time. Play for 20 to 30 minutes a day

for the first two weeks (if, however, the instrument must be played for long periods

of time, remove moisture from the instrument frequently).

● Whenever possible, use a cleaning swab to remove moisture and dirt from the

instrument. This should be done during playing sessions as well.

The bassoon is a very delicate instrument. Handling the instrument in any of the

manners described below can result in damage. Never treat the instrument in such

a manner.

● Playing or storing the instrument where it will be exposed to direct sunlight for an

extended period of time.

● Playing or storing the instrument in places subject to moisture (rain, etc.) or high

humidity.

● Playing or storing the instrument close to a heat source such as a stove, heater, etc.

● Playing or storing the instrument in places where it will be directly exposed to cold

air from an air conditioner, etc.

To keep the instrument in optimum condition, please observe the following

important points.

● After playing, use a cleaning swab to thoroughly remove moisture and dirt.

● When putting the instrument down for breaks, etc., use a cleaning swab to remove

moisture and dirt, then lean the instrument against a sturdy stand, etc. If you must

lay the instrument down, make sure the keys are facing up and the instrument laid

down on a stable surface.

● After playing, make sure the instrument is stored in its case. Never keep the instru-

ment in places where it may be exposed to high temperatures or high humidity.
