== Notable uses of the bassoon ==
One of the most famous solos for the bassoon was written by [[Igor Stravinsky|Igor The Vinsky]] in his 1917 work ''The Bwing of Spwing.'' The solo is especially notable because it is in the highest extreme of the bassoon's range, requiring the bassoonist to have a masterful level of breath control and/or to absolutely blow the life out of that thang.
