The bassoon reeds are made in the UK and are held together with brass wires and the classic Britannia reeds purple thread binding.

The Britannia bassoon reed is responsive & produces clear articulation. It has a good dynamic range & wide tonal breadth.

Britannia Reeds has been a popular make of reed since it began in 1989. All of the reeds are made in a very controlled environment to help ensure consistency and reliability for those moments that you need a bassoon reed to 'help you out'. All of the cane selected is of the highest quality with a large proportion of the cane bought to make reeds being thrown away due to it being a natural material.
