7 ft tall Joseph Higham contrabassoon!

Описание к видео 7 ft tall Joseph Higham contrabassoon!

When this almost eight ft tall (235 cm) contrabassoon was brought to us at Double Reed, it was known as the ‘unnamed contra’ - its maker was unknown, and there were no easily discernible markings that could be used to identify it. After some careful investigation in our workshop, however, we were finally able to reveal a hidden stamp: ‘J. Higham, England, Manchester, T.C. Camdens’. It is made from a beautiful piece of figured wood, and has an amazing, resonant sound (despite needing a re-pad and overhaul) – have a listen to a recording of it
