Of all the instruments developed during the Renaissance, the bassoon undoubtedly possesses the most curious history. Associated with music in the open air, it was also praised for the sweetness of its sound. The musicians of Syntagma Amici explore its use as a family of instruments in polyphonic repertoire of the 16th century as well as in the first virtuoso pieces that were dedicated to it at the beginning of the 17th century.
