This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. -

Maximilian Witherell (1994-present) is an active performer. Currently a freshman at the University of South Carolina, he has played many different instruments including piano, handbells, singing and contrabassoon, but he is best known for his work on the bassoon. After being mistakenly called an oboist or clarinetist for years by the general public, he has committed himself to the uphill battle of establishing a cultural, widely-known identity for his instrument.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
