I don’t know how to explain this but Ganondorf would totally play bassoon in the orchestra
He gives me low-woodwind vibes
Bassoon is the definition of lawful evil

Playing a rare(ish) instrument means it becomes literally your whole personality. If you hear a piece of music where your instrument gets a solo, you WILL let everybody in the immediate vicinity know, whether they want to or not.
