Summary/Abstract: Observations regarding the behaviour of the instruments during sound exposure and upon the resultant proper of the aforementioned, the musical expressivity, were made over a period of more than 2000 years. The aim of these observations and research was to discover the most efficient sound articulation rules, necessary for obtaining the quality able to express, as convincingly and truthfully as possible. The bassoon finds its place in the orchestra of classicism, known as Mannheim School, in the Viennese composition trinity. The almost geometric expansion of a romantic orchestra, and especially the post-romantic one, enlarges the opportunities of complex manifestation of the bassoon.
