Description
The #PM template was developed with Prof. Pierre Martens of the Lübeck Conservatory.
It is characterized by a parabolic tip shape with light corners and a moderately broad heart.
While conceived for wider shapes (R2 or similar), it is also well suited to narrower ones.
The finished bassoon reed features a round, supple sound and a great deal of flexibility.
It requires a well-supported, direct air flow and is therefore especially appropriate for solo and orchestral playing as well as chamber music.
It enables a large dynamic range.
A scraping length of up to 20 mm is possible.
Background Information
Prof. Martens uses an R2 shape and primarily Güner, Lavoro, and Danzi cane with hardness 15-16, gouged to approx. 1.25 mm and profiled to 0.95 – 0.60/0.55 mm.
The length of his finished reeds is 56 mm, with a shaft length of 28 mm and a scrape length of 28 mm.
