Harrington Bassoon is a versatile, true-legato bassoon library performed by Kody Harrington, principal bassoonist of the Victoria Symphony Orchestra in Texas.
Recorded at Orb Studios in Austin, our goal was to create a responsive, emotive, and agile instrument capable of fitting into various orchestral contexts.
The Workhorse patch is the all-rounder, performed with a confident mezzo-forte dynamic. Emotional delivers an expressive, lyrical performance at mezzo-piano, while also capable of softer, more jovial passages.
The Marcato Legato patch variations offer enhanced phrasing capabilities (see the manual section below for details—it’s pretty cool). We’ve also included a polyphonic marcato patch with multiple dynamics.
Additionally, we captured a range of inhale breaths throughout the session, adding realism when woven in before or between phrases.

MANUAL
With the Workhorse and Emotional Legato patches, velocities 1-30 produce a softer attack, 31-114 triggers a more pronounced attack (with round robins), and 115-127 delivers an immediate vibrato following the attack.
For Marcato Legato, velocities 1-30 will trigger a soft attack, 31-114 a faster attack, and 115-127 activates the marcato articulation.
Marcato Legato Pesante prioritizes the marcato sustain, triggered at velocities 31-127, while a soft attack is activated at velocities 1-30.
The Breaths patch includes a collection of inhales captured throughout the session. Incorporating these breaths before or between phrases can enhance your mockup, adding a sense of presence and authenticity.
Kody Harrington is currently the principal bassoonist of the Victoria Symphony Orchestra (TX). In addition, he is pursuing an Artist Diploma in bassoon performance from Oberlin Conservatory, studying with Drew Pattison. He has performed with the Austin, Waco, Shreveport, and New World Symphonies.
