<fly, it's a not-very-often used term for bassoon, which is fagot, or fagotto, or similar in German, Italian, and Spanish. popular etymology holds that it's because bassoons look kinda like bundles of sticks (faggots), but the pro etymologists seem to poohpooh that idea. it's often mentioned in bassoon lore on bassoon sites. yes, there are bassoon sites>
