Dolmetsch is currently prototyping a "double contrabass recorder". I remember a photo of a man playing a recorder probably of about 8ft from the 1970s; would that be a contrabass in C? Is the Dolmetsch double contrabass a 12ft F or a 16ft C one? As far as I can tell, Dolmetsch's low line is as follows: Tenor 2' C Bass 3' F Great Bass 4' C Contrabass 6' F Contra Great Bass 8' C (in prototype) Double Contrabass 12' F (starting prototyping) -- John W. Kennedy "The blind rulers of Logres Nourished the land on a fallacy of rational virtue." -- Charles Williams. "Taliessin through Logres: Prelude" |
