Sarrusophone
Reedy and somewhat harsh-sounding family of single and double-reed woodwinds created by Pierre-Louis Gautrot in the mid-19th century to serve as a replacement for oboes and bassoons in outdoor wind bands. Sarrusophones had carrying power which oboes and bassoons of the time lacked. Now infrequently used as more of a novelty instrument in classical and jazz settings.
