Further Notes on the Herzberg Shape: Developed by famed pedagogue and reed-maker, Norman Herzberg, while he was teaching at the University of Southern California, this shape is widely used by professionals across the country.  With a slightly narrow blade and flared tube made especially for beveling, Herzberg reeds are structurally some of the strongest available.  They are favored by many orchestral bassoonists for their centered tone and ability to project to the back of a hall.

All finished reeds are custom-made and handmade to order – all sales are final.
