| "In my
opinion no wind band is ideal without a complete family of easy-to-play
sarrusophones, by the inclusion of which the double-reeds are brought
on a par with the single-reeds....The wind band should not so cripple
itself, by tonal ill-balance and incomplete families (oboe and English
horn without bass-oboe or heckelphone; sax-horns without sopranino
or alto; saxophones without soprano)..." |
