Not much is known about this instrument. It is pitched 1 octave below the contrabass clarinet, two octaves below the bass clarinet, and three octaves below the Bb clarinet. Its lowest note is one octave below one of the lowest notes on the piano, and it is no longer in use as the only model for it is broken beyond repair. It is also the REAL lowest woodwind, and battles for the lowest note obtained with an instrument with the 64’ stop organ. Plays into the -1 octave range.
