Grab your JMG Bassoon Reeds now before they’re gone! Juliana Mesa of JMG Bassoon Reeds crafts some of the finest bassoon reeds available, and they’re now featured in our Jende Artisan Mall!
Handcrafted with meticulous care, these JMG Bassoon reeds are offered in three versions catering to players of all levels: Classic, Orchestral, and Soloist. All reeds are 56mm in size, shaped with a Rieger 1A shaper. (Fun fact: Jende Reed Knives are used in their creation!) The Classic reeds are crafted from Medir cane, while the Soloist and Orchestral reeds are made with Danzi cane. Additionally, you have the option to select your preferred wrap color!
Each JMG Bassoon Reed is pre-tested and ready to play straight out of the box. The Classic reeds are typically softer and easy to adjust, while the Soloist reeds lean towards a firmer texture with more scope for personalization.
These exceptional reeds are the creation of Juliana Mesa-Jaramillo, a dedicated bassoonist currently pursuing a Doctoral Degree in Bassoon Performance at the University of Wisconsin-Madison under the guidance of Pr. Marc Vallon. Her accomplishments include winning the Irving Shain Piano/Woodwind Duo Competition in 2016 and holding prestigious positions in orchestras such as Principal and Second bassoon in the EAFIT Symphony Orchestra, alongside instructing bassoon at the Medellin Philharmonic Academy.
