The modern Bassoon exists in two distinct primary forms, the Buffet System and the Heckel System. The Buffet System is played primarily in France, Belgium and Latin America, while the Heckel System is played in the majority of the world.
The design of the modern Bassoon owes a great deal to the performer, teacher and composer Almenrader. He worked closely with the Schott Factory to develop new designs. Almenrader left Schott to start his own factory along with partner Johann Adam Heckel. The Heckel concern has produced instruments continuously to the present day. Heckel System Bassoons are considered by many to be the best. The design of the Schott Bassoon is fashioned after the Heckel system.
