Original classical bassoon for sale made by Ignatz Riedel. A beautiful looking instrument.
Josef Ignatz Riedel was a musical instrument maker in the historic town of Graslitz (modern day Kraslice, Czech Republic). The town is renowned for musical instrument making, being well known for this for several centuries at least (1).
This is an 8 key instrument. It does not have a case or crook, but we can provide a baroque/classical bassoon gig bag at additional cost.
Josef Ignatz Riedel was active as a clarinet and bassoon maker between 1790 and 1821.
