The Serpent
-
-
The serpent played well,
-
And the illegitimate love-child of the Serpent was the Ophicleide...
-
Ancient instruments often look dated and weird however when played well in a small ensemble in a drawing room or modest sized concert hall they usually sound intimate reserved gentle and angelic.
What have we lost in the last 500 years by abandoning utter beauty in our endevours to sound modern progressive and robust
Thank you Steve, Zzorse, and Barliman
