This book is a valuable tool for anyone researching the bassoon or bassoon related topics. It includes citations for nearly every book, article, dissertation, thesis, and video dealing with the bassoon. It is divided into different sections, allowing one to easily look up available information on a particular bassoon player, composer, information on bassoon reeds, or aspects of the instrument. There is also an alphabetical section by the author included along with category listings.

Reviews

"The updated guide continues to provide an excellent starting point for researchers examining various topics concerning the bassoon. Dr. Lipori continues his care and industry in compiling materials to the second edition to the guide.

The guide is user friendly in its organization. All the citations are noted in the alphabetical listing by author (or article title if no author appears). Topics are cross referenced and each citation is found again in the more focused listing of subjects of interest which include a broad range of topics from reed making to historically significant teachers and performers."
