Саррюзофон
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. The instruments were intended for military bands, to serve as replacements for oboes and bassoons which at the time lacked the carrying power required for outdoor marching music.

Сарюсофон (фр. sarrusophone) — деревянный духовой инструмент с двойной тростью, изобретённый в 1856 году и сконструированный Пьером-Луи Готро вскоре после изобретения Саксом саксофона. Французские музыканты были неудовлетворенны звучанием контрафагота, особенно на открытом воздухе, в результате чего появился запрос на более громкий инструмент с двойной тростью.
