Come see us at the International Horn Show in Denver, July 23-26, 2008! We'll be there with dozens of horns new, reconditioned and antique.
On the way to us now... early 1800's natural horn by Courtois Neveu, Rue des Provaires, St. Eustache a Paris. Nine crooks. Please email for more info...
Our Alexander 1103ML was made in 2006. It's been played professional, valves are perfect, original lacquer finish is 99.9% intact. The horn has no dents, a couple of very small dings and has never had any nasty damage!
This horn is yellow brass and with fixed bell. Case is a Marcus Bonna MB-1, in superb condition with no tears to the fabric, perfect zippers, music pouch.
The model 1103ML, also referred to as the K model, is a Geyer-Knopf type design. It's a very even playing horn, with smooth transitions from the F side to the Bb. The tone is a bit brighter than the 103.
Serial number is #2205x. We sold it two years ago.
Wichita Band specializes in top-quality horns from the best makers in the World. We have in our shop and immediately available New Alexander doubles, Descants and Triples, new Paxman doubles and triples, new Holton doubles and descants and new Conn doubles and descants.

Price on our horn is only $6350.00.
The new Alexes are absolutely superb, but if you're wanting a top-of-the-line professional full double horn from one of the TWO finest horn makers in the world, this one's for you.
Top recommendation on this one.

Rare antique natural horn (no valves) by Beauboeuf brothers, made between 1849 and 1857. The bell is stamped “ FB / Beauboeuf Freres / Paris”, is of brass with brass bell garland. The horn is totally original, without breaks or patches. Bell diameter is 10 1/4 inches (260 mm). The horn has come to us with nine crooks plus a B-flat coupler. Six of the crooks and the coupler match, two others have different fittings but appear to be from the same period. Dents and dings have been burnished out in our shop, but the horn has not been machine buffed in any way. The original painting inside the bell is still about 25 - 30 % intact. As reported in the “New Langwill Index”, Oscar and Auguste Beauboeuf’s brass manufacturing workshop was established in 1849, ceased business operations eight years later. Top recommendation on this one! $8500.
Rare single horn in F, ascending third valve system, by Buffet-Crampon, made in France about 1900. Engraved on the bell garland "Evette & Schaeffer, (Buffet Crampon & Cie a Paris) C.G.Conn (Elkhart) 6D double horn, #822,000. It’s an original Elkhart 6D with dents and dings removed in our shop in Wichita. Original lacquer finish is worn maybe 5%. It’s been cleaned up and has a new American case with it, as well. Quite different from today’s Conn 6D horns, this one is a “best buy” at $1350.
C.G.Conn (Elkhart) 6D double horn, #L30180 (1968). It’s an original Elkhart 6D with dents and dings removed in our shop in Wichita. Original lacquer finish is worn maybe 5%.

Rare single horn in F by Couesnon, made in France about 1950. is a rare Couesnon single F horn that has come to us in good original condition, has three piston valves, 99% of the original bright silver finish and good original wood case.
The original nickel silver pistons show minor wear, not enough to require rebuilding.
Some dings to the detachable F-crook have been removed in our shop. Minor bell dings and one wrinkle to the bell flare have also been burnished out in our shop.
The horn is engraved on the bell U.I.G./179/2994/ Kaspar Wicky/ Geneve/the Couesnon logo/COUESNON/ET CIE./Paris/Monopole Conservatoire.
The original French case is good, solid as a rock.
The design of the horn is such that the moutpipe the F-crook, we call it… is detachable as was typical of all French horns until about 1900. The F crook has had some restoration work done to it and there are a couple of well-done repair patches to the tubing. The horn is also supplied with one E-flat crook that’s original and in fine condition.
Keep in mind that this is a rare historical instrument that’s not suitable for school use. It’s a typical French single horn that’s absolutely perfect for Daphnis et Chloe, for Gilbert & Sullivan, for French band music of the late 19th. and early 20th. century.
With one removable F crook :$1200; With additional removable E-flat crook :$1375.
Holton B-76, a medium bell model double horn that’s yellow brass, #445,00X made in 1967. 75 - 80% original lacquer finish, some dings to the spout have been burnished out in our shop in Wichita. The rotors are very good, show minimal wear. This particular model was in production at Holton until the mid 1970’s. The B-flat slides are on the outside, the F slides inside, in the same manner as double horns from the Lorenzo Sansone workshop. Sansone (and Holton) maintained that this design gave a freer blowing high range to the instrument. The B-76 was replaced by Holton’s H-378 in the 1970’s, with a similar design to their H-178 / H-179 series. With new case, this one’s $1195.
Holton H-180 double horn. Serial # 522,890. The valves are very good, the case is very good. Lacquer finish is worn maybe 5%. Dents and dings burnished out, now nearly invisible. The H-180 is their large bell “Phil Farkas” model, now with a suggested retail price of $5100. With new case, this one’s $1695.
Holton H-275, a large bell “Merker” model double horn that’s solid nickel-silver, #662,81x, made about 1999 . 98% original lacquer finish, small dings to the bell flare have been burnished out in our shop. Never wrinkled, this one looks very close to new. New suggested retail price is now $6395. This one’s a good “9.9 on a scale of ten”. Why buy a new one? $2195.
Vintage German double horn by Albert Kley, the bell engraved “Albert Kley / Instrumentenmachesr / Berlin C54 / D.R.G.M. 768917”. Kley worked for C.F. Schmidt from 1895 to 1906, set up his own workshop in 1914, specializing in double horns. The company stayed in business until about 1935. Our horn is a compensating double, unlacquered brass and totally original, except for a recent re-build to the rotors. Small patch to the edge of the bell flare, another on the first slide, B-flat side. The horn shows evidence of high-quality workmanship, plays very well with the “old German sound”. Bore size measures 11.86 mm at the second slide. Superb, rare, not for everyone. $2150.
Rare single horn in F, three pistons, the bell engraved “C. Mahillon / Succ. J. Smits / Fournisseur / Brevete / de L’armee / et des conservatorires / Bruxelles (star logo / u / (cartouche with Belgian flags, lion rampant and ‘Lunion fait la force’ / Modele adopte / Mr. G. LeBrun”. The entire instrument is nickel plated over brass, one detachable crook. The original plating is worn maybe 2%, dents and dings have been burnished out in our shop in Wichita. The original pistons are tight, the instrument in good original condition. Probably made about 1925. Rare single horn by a quality Belgian workshop. This one’s $850.
Rare antique piston-valved horn by Charles Roth of Strassbourg, made about 1860 - 1870. The horn is totally original, without damage of any kind and with normal modern (not ascending third valve) configuration. Bell diameter is 11 3/8 inches (290 mm). Evidence that the horn has been played very little, the original brass pistons are still tight, do not need plating. There are no patches and the bell wears a wide garland on the flare. The body of the horn is stamped “Ch. Roth / a Strassbourg / brevete / S.G.D.G.” Germany gained control of Strassbourg / Strassburg in 1870 and it became illegal to use the French language in business and financial dealings. The French spelling is evidence, we believe, that the horn was built before 1870. The original wood box is in good condition and the horn comes with two original deep cup and small shank nickel-silver mouthpieces, one slightly wider than the other.
F.A. Reynolds full double horn, model FE-03, #215,653, made in Texas before Reynolds was absorbed by the Norlin Group and manufacturing moved to California. Brass body and slides, original brass rotors are very tight, showing no wear at all. Dents and dings to the spout have been burnished out, the horn now clean and ready to play. Originally designed by Chicago Symphony hornist Max Pottag, still used by a number of professional players, the Reynolds horns were of very high quality. Final price will depend on repair hours. Should be ready to show in early June. $XXXX

VINTAGE COUESNON FRENCH C & B-FLAT TRUMPET.
In business for more than half a century, our small music shop in Wichita sold quite a number of Couesnon brasses back in the early sixties. They were imported to the States by the Fred Gretsch Company and distributed to brass shops all over America. We had a good relationship with Gretsch and still sell their guitars, even to this day.
Our trumpet is one of Couesnon's model 2207 C-trumpets. It has no serial number, so it's pretty hard to determine the exact age. And all of their company records were destroyed in a factory fire, more than a decade ago. But based on our experience and their 1965 catalog, we believe our trumpet dates from the early to mid fifties.
It's a C trumpet with an extension to the main slide to put it in the key of B-flat. The instrument has come to us in very good, nearly pristine, original condition. There are no worn areas to the original bright silver finish and minor dings to the bell spout have been burnished out in our shop. We measure the bore size, at the second slide, to be .456 inches. Bell diameter is 4 1/2 inches.
Pistons are bottom-sprung nickel plate and there's NO wear to the plating. Tolerances are typical French, which means pretty good, but not as good as a new Bach or Schilke. Yep, we also sell Bach and Schilke instruments, have done since the sixties and before.
Bell is engraved COUESNON / 105 Rue Lafayette / PARIS / made in France, but there's no Monopole engraving. That means the trumpet probably dates from before the sixties.
This one comes with an original fifties Couesnon mouthpiece and a new Pro-Tech case.
Perfect for somebody wanting an inexpensive C trumpet or for a serioius jazz player who likes a bright tone-color. Or for the symphony trumpet player who's got to have "original French" to play Ravel, DeBussy or Faure.
No hesitation in recommending this one. And it's not even expensive. $795. SOLD
Rare professional B-flat trumpet by A. Courtois (Paris) #9000, made in Paris about 1955. Good original condition with 95% original bright silver plate finish, bell dings to the flair & spout recently burnished out in our shop. Medium bore size with “M” stamped just above the serial number. Original chrome-plated pistons are absolutely perfect. Engraved on the bell“Antoine Courtois / brevete / facteur conservatoire / national / 8 rue de Nancy / PARIS”. Courtois is France’s oldest brass instrument maker, renowned for fine professional quality, but never imported to the USA in large numbers because of the high price. This particular instrument was their “Balanced Model”, based on Selmer’s “BA” model trumpet used by Harry James and Louis Armstrong. There’s evidence of burnishing to the bell, the spout and the mouthpipe. And the bell to mouthpipe brace has had some resoldering that we’ve cleaned up a bit. All in all, it’s a totally original and rare Courtois that’s come to us with a few nicks and dings, but with almost perfect pistons. This one’s $1195.
Used professional B-flat trumpet by A. Courtois (Paris) #74,35x. Good original condition with 95% original gold lacquer finish, bell dings to the flair & spout recently burnished out in our shop. The bore size is large (we measure it as .463). Stainless steel pistons are absolutely perfect. Engraved on the bell“Antoine Courtois PARIS”. The mouthpiece receiver is stamped “112L”. Courtois is France’s oldest brass instrument maker, renowned for fine professional quality, but never imported to the USA in large numbers because of the high price. A new Courtois B-flat trumpet would now retail for about $3000. With new case and original Courtois mouthpiece, this one: $795.00.
ALMOST NEW, PRO TRUMPET, GETZEN “PROFESSIONAL CUSTOM ARTIST”. We’ve sold Getzen brasses since the early 1960’s, but here’s a “best buy” that we’ve GOT to pass on to our customers! We’ve bought the entire stock of a music shop that’s recently decided to go in another direction. Included in the transaction is a GAGGLE of trumpets that are new, never been sold, never rented or otherwise offered to customers. Because we acquired them from another dealer, we’re obliged to sell them as “almost new” or “new old stock” or “demo models”. But the trumpets have never been sold, owned or rented. And our 24 month service warranty DOES apply. And Getzen’s “transferable warranty” ALSO is good. There are NO dents, wrinkles, scratches or dings anywhere on the instrument. But because it came from another dealer, we can’t sell it as “absolutely new”. It’s “like new”, but not quite new. It’s Getzen’s model 3051S “Professional Custom Artist “trumpet, made with .459 inch bore, #172 one piece, hand hammered heavy gold brass bell ,#125 mouthpipe and rounded main slide. It’s Getzen’s “top of the line” B-flat trumpet. Bore size is .459 inches and the bell is 4 3/4 inches in diameter. Pistons are nickel-plated. The bell, valve cluster and slides are all silver plated. Suggested retail price is now $2730 on this model. Price on this one is $1450. SOLD
Good pro-quality trumpet from the H. N. White Company “King Liberty”, #232,5xx, made in Cleveland in 1936. The original chrome-plated valves are like new and the instrument wears very good original silver finish with gold wash inside the bell, to the slides and on the name / logo on the bell. Medium bore size measures .448 at the second slide and the bell diameter is 4 ½ inches. The King Liberties were popular among commercial and jazz players in the forties and later, but they’re definitely not for everybody. Recommended for jazz or Big Band work, especially if the ensemble’s doing pre-1960 music. With original King M-18 mouthpiece and King case from the late fifties. $1095.
VINTAGE TRUMPET IN D, MADE ABOUT 1950 FROM THE KRUSPE WORKSHOP IN ERFURT, GERMANY.
Although we’ve sold more than a hundred Kruspe French horns over the years, it’s not often we get one of their trumpets. Judging by the engraving on the bell, we believe this one to date from about 1950, perhaps as late as 1955 or even 1960.
The bell is engraved with Kruspe’s modern logo (an eagle with a French horn in its beak…), no DRGM number (which means it’s almost certainly post WW II) and serial number 4363 stamped on the rail that holds the valve levers.
Workmanship is very good, in our opinion, ranking somewhat above the craftsmanship we’ve seen on Kruspe brasses made in the sixties and seventies.
The bell is gold-brass, original and without patches, thin spots or damage of any kind. There have been some dings to the bow and spout of the bell, but they’re now nearly invisible. The bell does not appear to have been sanded or filed and there’s still plenty of metal left.
Bell diameter is 4 5/8 inches (117 mm.); bore size is .430 inches (11 mm). For comparison, Josef Monke’s “model M” D-trumpet also has 11 mm bore size. Monke’s D trumpet bell is wider, at 125 mm., than our Kruspe.
Slides are also gold-brass, without damage, thin spots or repairs. Slide legs are solid nickel-silver.
Mouthpipe is solid nickel-silver as well, without damage and totally original.
Rotary valves are very good, tight and without damage. Plugs are bronze, bearing plates are brass and valve casings are solid nickel-silver.
The instrument has never been lacquered and is not so today.
The instrument came to us with an original “GEWA” case that also wears the logo of a Stuttgart dealer.
Mouthpiece is stamped “7C”, but we believe it to be German.
Keep in mind that this is a trumpet in D, perfect for Beethoven’s Symphony number seven, for Mussorgsky’s “Pictures”, even for use in Haendel’s “Messiah”. It’s not an “everyday” trumpet, but one that’s for specialized use.
Price is low on this one, a mere $1250. Just for comparison purposes, Josef Monke’s superb new D-trumpets are priced in Germany at 3453 Euros. Add case, mouthpiece, water key on the tuning slide and you’re up to about 3600. With US import duty, shipping costs and conversion of Euros to Dollars, that makes Monke’s D-trumpet more than $4800. SOLD 06/07
CORNETS, vintage and used
Coming soon... French Besson Cornets! Couesnon Fluegel... Please email for more info...
Vintage cornet by Buescher, #182,300, made in Elkhart in 1926. “True tone” model in B-flat with quick change rotor to A. Original satin silver finish is worn maybe 5%, good gold plate inside the bell and to the logo on the outside of the bell. Original nickel pistons are good, still tight. Small silver patch to the mouthpipe. The original case, lyre, mute and #14 Buescher “True Tone” mouthpiece are still with it. Not quite pristine, but interesting due to the Bb-A change and because everything’s original. Bell diameter is 4 5/8 inches and the bore size measures .440 inches. $475.
ANTIQUE FRENCH B-FLAT / A CORNET FROM COUESNON, MADE IN 1924. It’s very good and totally original “Monopole” cornet, the ”top of the line” from the Couesnon workshop in Paris. This one’s quite unusual, in that all parts are original and unaltered, there are no dents or dings, the case, mouthpipe and mouthpiece are all original. Original brass valves are still very tight, work quite well. The instrument appears to have been played very little in the past 84 years. The bell’s stamped “Exposition Universelle de Paris / 1900 / HORS CONCOURS / membre de jury / COUESNON & Cie. / fourinsseurs / DES BEAUX-ARTS / DU CONSERVATOIRE NATIONAL / ET DE L’ARMEE 94. RUE D’ANGOULEME PARIS / Monopole (inside logo) / 40068 / 24 (inside logo)”. Bore size, measured at the second slide, is .452 inches. Bell diameter is 4 5/8 inches. The 1913 Couesnon catalog shows the instrument as their “No 01 ter.” model, the “top of the line”. The quick-change rotor works very well, but the cornet plays a bit more free in B-flat than in A. Doesn’t appear to have ever been dinged or dented. Note small brass patch to the tubing between #2 and #3 pistons. Original case is perfect and the original mouthpipe and no-name brass mouthpiece are like new. Clean example that’s perfect for Dixieland, Military Band or whatever. And with the Bb to A rotor, you never have to worry about transposition. $995 SOLD
Early cornet by Jean Hilaire Aste Halari (1775 - 1840) stamped on the bell “HALARI FOURNsier du ROI A PARIS ” with his logo ( initials J A ? ) above the name. Bell diameter is 123 mm. (4.84 inches). Bore size, measured at the second slide, is 11.8 mm (.464 inches). Three perinet pistons, the casings stamped “ 1 , 2 , 3 “. Pistons are top-sprung, unscrew only at the top of the valve casings. Finger buttons are mother-of-pearl, all original. Wrap is an early Stoezel design. Wire braces to the main tuning slide (end of mouthpipe), from the mouthpipe to the main tuning slide and from the bottom of the main tuning slide to the bottom of the mouthpipe. Ferrules of all three valve slides are original. No patches to the body of the cornet nor to the slides. Music holder (lyre) screws into the top of the finger-ring. The funnel mouthpiece is not stamped, appears to be the original, based on turings to the shank matching turnings to the sides.
The cornet has seven original crooks, all with the names stamped to a nickel-silver cartouche, “Si ” , “La” , “La b” , “Sol”, “Fa”, “Mi” and “ Mi b“ (the E-flat crook is a coupler, to be used with the E crook or with other crooks). The cornet came to us with the original box, with brass fittings, handle to the top, original hinges, clasps and lock. We’ve burnished out a few dings and have soldered several fittings that have come loose. The instrument is of high quality and based on the fact that Louis-Philippe abdicated the French throne in 1848, we’re certain the instrument dates from the mid 1840’s. It’s a rare cornet from the finest French brass maker of the early 19th century. $4500. SOLD 02/07
Rare antique cornet from the Gautrot workshops (Paris), pre 1900.
Good French cornet by Gautrot, the bell engraved with Gautrot logo and “G R”. Made in Paris about 1880 - 1885, we believe.
Valve cluster to the left, mouthpipe to the right and bell down the middle. Original brass pistons are still good, actually very tight.
Minor dents and dings have been removed in our shop in Wichita.
No patches, no water key.
The original wood case is still in good condition and the cornet is sold with six crooks: B-flat, A, A-flat, G, F and coupler to bring the F crook down to E-flat.
Bell diameter is five inches, approx. bore size is .445.
Couesnon (Gautrot’s successor) shows a similar “model GCO francais” instrument in their 1913 catalog, but no model “GR”.
Not pristine, but very close to it. The instrument plays very well, better in B-flat / A than in the lower pitches, of course.
Recommended and it’s not even expensive! $1495.
Early cornet by Schaffner stamped on the bell “SCHAFFNER / PARIS “. The New Langwill Index only refers to the name as being a supplier in 1850 of instruments to the Parisian maker / dealer Jean-Baptiste Gambaro. Bell diameter is 129 mm. (5.08 inches). Bore size, measured at the second slide, is 10.7 mm (.421 inches). Three perinet pistons, with the second piston offset. Pistons are top-sprung, unscrew only at the top of the valve casings. Finger buttons are ivory, all original. Wrap is an early Stoezel design. Wire braces to the main tuning slide (end of mouthpipe), from the mouthpipe to the main tuning slide and from the bottom of the main tuning slide to the bottom of the mouthpipe. Ferrules of all three valve slides are original. No patches to the body of the cornet nor to the slides. The funnel mouthpiece is not stamped, appears to be the original.
The cornet has seven original crooks, engraved on the brass receiver
“S B ”, “LA ”, “LA B” , “SOL”, one crook stamped “FA ” on the receiver, one engraved “MI” on a nickel cartouche soldered to the receiver and one unmarked coupler. The cornet came to us with the original box of rosewood veneer, with brass fittings, handle to the top, original hinges and lock. We’ve burnished out a few dings and have soldered several fittings that have come loose. Based on the construction of the valve cluster and the Langwill report, we believe the instrument to have been built before 1850. It’s a rare cornet from a little-known French brass maker of the early 19th century. $3750.
Rare compensator French B-flat cornet by Sudre, the bell stamped “(horn-logo with the initials FS) / 83 médailles et brevets / HALARI / Diplome d’Honneur / F.

Additional stamp on the first valve: "1462 / ajusteur breveté Daniel (in an oval) / (horn-logo with initials FS)” and a soldered cartouche on the first valve casing “accord de (D & C #)” and another cartouche on the back of the first valve casing “accord de (Eb & Ab) and another cartouche soldered to the tubing connecting the first and third valve casing “compensateur”. Small crack to the bell ring and a small patch to the bell spout. Based on the report in the “New Langwill Index”, we believe the instrument to have been made before 1885. $2650.
Good French cornet by Verdeau, the bell engraved “ (lyre & anchor logo) / B. VERDEAU & Fils / brevete s.g.d.g. / fournisseurs de la marine / de l’armee / et des conservatoires / Rue st.

Mouthpiece is stamped “J. Altrichter Frankfurt”. The mouthpipe wears remnants of a non-original tuning device of some sort.

RARE CORNET BY COUESNON, MADE IN FRANCE ABOUT 1920.

Never any major dents or damage, a few small dings have been burnished from the bow of the bell and are now invisible. See page number 29 of Couesnon’s 1915 catalog. The “Monopole” model was Couesnon’s “top of the line” in the early twentieth century. Our cornet is listed as a model 01, “…avec un barillet transposant en la…” That means there is a rotor at the end of the mouthpipe that makes it possible to play the instrument in Bb or in the key of A. The instrument plays very well, has come to us in very fine original condition. On a scale of ten, we give this one a “9.0”. Bore size (measured at the second slide) is .450 inches (11.38 mm.). The cornet is offered with one Bb detachable mouthpipe, a Couesnon cornet mouthpiece and a French case from the sixties or later. $795 SOLD

Superb vintage German Bass Trombone in F with four rotary valves by Wilhelm J. Finke, Reichenberg.
Probably made about 1950, this fine instrument is from the workshop of the father of Helmut Finke, founder of the well respected German workshop who claims to be the first makers in the twentieth century of modern copies of historical brass instruments, and who are known today for fine handmade German brass instruments, especially French horns.
This bass trombone from Wilhelm Finke’s workshop shows very high quality workmanship. The instrument is constructed of yellow brass with a nickel silver kranz on the bell, and is in the key of F.
Bell diameter is 8-1/2 inches. The bore, measured at the valve slides, is .530 inches. Overall length is 45 inches, about the same as a "standard" bass slide trombone. The instrument balances well and is easy to hold.
The fourth valve lowers the pitch a perfect fourth as on most four-valve brass instruments.
The valves are tight and the instrument plays very well at A=440.
The bass trombone is all original and in very good condition, with no serious damage ever. There is a small patch on the first valve slide knuckle (see photo) but no signs of corrosion or “red rot” anywhere on the instrument.
The rotary valves are tight, with no leakage and smooth, fast action. Key linkages are also tight and quiet, with a very short stroke and excellent “clock mechanism” enclosed springs.
Original mouthpiece is included, but no case. We can supply a new padded gigbag for an additional $75.00.
This fine instrument plays very easily, with even response and good intonation throughout the range. The tone quality is surprisingly dark and focused for a small-bore bass trombone. Low C is great with either 1 & 3 or the fourth valve. This is the perfect bass trombone for Verdi’s operas, which were actually written for valve trombones! $1650. SOLD
King model 2103F Trombone, #24X (bell), #470X (slide). It’s a “King Musical Instruments” t-bone, made about 10 - 12 years ago. New lacquer finish on the bell and the playing slide from Wichita Band.

The Mitching-Alschausky model was introduced in 1934. We believe our instrument to date from the late 1930s or the early 1940’s. $1695.

***********************************************************************************
ORIGINAL AND RARE FRENCH OPHICLEIDE BY HALARI 1852 - 1870. This beauty has now had all dents and dings burnished out, pads replaced, springs made to work like originally intended and is now ready to play! The bell is stamped “ (cor de chasse logo) / HALARI / FOURNseur de L’EMPEREUR / A PARIS “. As the photos show, the body is of yellow brass, the crook original and the keywork of nickel-silver alloy. A quick look in our history books tells us that Napoleon III became President of the Second Republic in 1848, assumed the role of emperor four years later, a position he held until the Franco-Prussian conflict of 1870. It’s therefore obvious that our instrument was made between 1852 and 1870. Earlier instruments, of course, would have been fitted with brass, not nickel-silver keywork. According to the Grove Dictonary of Musical Instruments, Halari was the inventor of the ophicleide and enjoyed the reputation of being the pre-eminent maker of the instrument. ”Ophicleide…An obsolete lip-energized brass wind instrument belonging to the keyed bugle family, to which it forms the natural bass. It was patented by the French maker Halary (Jean Hilaire Aste) in 1821…The tone of the instrument when well played is full and resonant; the derogatory comments of some musical historians seem little justified, as does the unkind nickname ‘chromatic bullock’ which so amused some Victorian reporters. Today in Britain there is a revival of interest in the ophicleide, as there is in the keyed bugle in the USA, and a number of professional brass players are giving attention to its technique. Composers such as Mendelssohn, Schumann, Verdi and Wagner wrote important parts for it; its characteristic tone is not always well replaced in their works by the orchestral tuba…” In other words, you can’t do “Midsummer” without one. The solos just don’t sound right on an F-tuba, you’ve got to agree. Ophicleides do pop up from time to time and we note that “anonymous” instruments from the large Gautrot-Couesnon factory (still listed in their 1913 catalog), while of quality, simply do not compare to the “professional models” from Halari’s Paris workshop. All right, we’ll say it…” Halari was the Antonius Stradivarius of the ophicleide”. $5500.00 SOLD
Rare English concert tuba in the key of BB-flat by Boosey-Hawkes / Besson (London), model 226 “full automatic compensating system” with 17 inch, large bore, upright bell construction.

The last of the non-Indian tubas were virtually identical to our instrument, cataloged as their “model 992”, with 19 inch rather than 17 inch bell diameter. This one’s 100% English, of high quality, has the voice of a giant cathedral pipe-organ. Highest recommendation. This one’s $2350.
