Sarusofon
Sign in to saveThe sarrusophones are a family of metal double reed conical bore woodwind instruments patented and first manufactured by French instrument maker Pierre-Louis Gautrot in 1856. Gautrot named the sarrusophone after French bandmaster Pierre-Auguste Sarrus (1813–1876), whom he credited with the concept of the instrument, though it is not clear whether Sarrus benefited financially.

Sarusofony (od nazwiska wynalazcy ; gr. phoné - dźwięk) - rodzina dętych instrumentów transponujących z podwójnym stroikiem (stąd zaliczanych do instrumentów dętych drewnianych, choć budowanych z metalu). W 1856 roku sarusofon opatentował i zaczął produkować Pierre-Louis Gautrot. Projekt techniczny instrumentu przypisywany jest Pierre'owi Augustowi Sarrusowi, kapelmistrzowi orkiestry wojskowej w Paryżu. Pierwotnym zamysłem było zastąpienie nim obojów i fagotów w orkiestrach dętych grających na otwartym powietrzu instrumentem o większej głośności.
