D.] DOUBLE BASSOON (It. Contra fagotto \ Fr.
ContrebaMon\ Grer. Contrafagottf Doppdfagott).
The contrafjAgotto or double bassoon, in pitch an octave below the ordinary bassoon, is not by any means a new instrument ; but the older instru- ments were of feeble rattling tone, rendered un- wieldy by unsuccessful attempts to obtain the Bb of the 3 a -foot octave. It has been considerably improved by Heir Haseneier of Coblenz, and subsequently by the writer, who has introduced it into English orchest
...ras.
The double bassoon as made on the writer's design by Haseneier consists of a tube 16 feet 4 inches long, truly conical in its bore, enlarging from i inch diameter at the reed to 4 inches at the bell. It is curved four times on itself for convenience of manipulation, so that the length of the instrument is about equal to that of the ordinary bassoon. Its extreme compass is three octaves, Scorn CCO upwards to middle — see ex- ample (a). Its ordinary range, however, should be limited to the tenor G, the notes above this being rather difficult to produce.
