The longest bassoon, known as the contrabassoon, measures approximately 16 feet (about 4.9 meters) in length when fully extended. This instrument plays an octave lower than the standard bassoon and is typically used in orchestras to provide a deep, resonant sound. Its extended tubing allows for this lower pitch, making it a unique addition to woodwind ensembles.
