Vonk
Bassoon Stand
A bassoon weighs approximately 3.5 kilograms. Traditionally, this weight hangs on the neck, and as the bassoon is top heavy, the left arm and shoulder are overloaded. The result: headache, and neck, shoulder and back complaints. These complaints also arise when a belt is used when seated. But even if the weight of the bassoon is distributed by using a wide and soft neck strap or a harness, these complaints still arise. Moreover, the harness does not exactly offer a female-friendly solution. A leg support, as often used in the Netherlands, takes the bassoon's weight and provides good balance, enabling the bassoon to be freely played. However, while such a support can be used without complaint, it must be fitted by a good repairer. After 30 years of playing bassoon and 20 years of Fagot Atelier Maarten Vonk, a new and revolutionary system that carries the bassoon, puts no load on the body and requires no changes to the bassoon has been developed. The Vonk stand is powerfully constructed, with strong and no-nonsense components. It will support the full weight of the bassoon while playing, and with a simple click, hold it upright and safe so you can use both hands to sort music, mark a score or adjust a reed. The stand collapses into five partsand stores in a heavy-duty nylon carry bag.
