Thirty years of passion for the sound of the bassoon and the contrabassoon and my experience as player in opera-, chamber- and symphonic orchestra result in a (contra-) bassoonreed with a rich and warm sound, easy start and good intonation. A reed that creates energy with both player and listener.

One type, one model.

Proportions in thickness are crucial for the shape of the reed. These proportions remain constant and result in one model. The average thickness is adjusted to the solidity of the wood until the ideal resonance has been achieved.

Shortly after its appearance in the music world, the Hara-reed received recognition: several soloists of prominent orchestras such as the “Concertgebouworkest Amsterdam” and “l’Orchestre de paris” use it.

Wishing you lots of playing enjoyment,
kind regards,
