Barton Cane’s First Newsletter

Since Barton Cane’s opening in March, 2012, we have added many new shapes, improved our website, added new artists to our artist series and relocated from Austin, Texas to Boulder, Colorado. We also have many exciting new developments in the works!

Artist Series

The artist series features well known performers and pedagogues who have developed unique specifications to their gouged, shaped and profiled cane. Our artists currently include Kristen Wolfe Jensen, professor at the University of Texas at Austin, Jeff Keesecker, professor at Florida State University and Gabriel Beavers, the newly appointed bassoon professor at the The Frost School of Music - University of Miami. Darrel Hale, the newly appointed bassoon professor at Louisiana State University will soon be joining our community of artists.

Shapes

In addition to our Artist Series, we currently carry Fox 1, Fox 2, Rieger 1A, Herzberg, Knochenhauer, Van Hoesen and Christlieb shapes.

Cane

Barton Cane currently offers Glotin cane grown in France and Gonzalez cane grown in Argentina. We hope to be adding more varieties of cane in the coming year.

Upcoming Events

Barton Cane will be attending the Meg Quigley Vivaldi Competition and Bassoon Symposium in Round Top Texas, January 18th-20th, 2014.

We will also be attending the International Double Reed Society Conference in New York City, August 5th-9th, 2014.
