Tenor415European

ThreeDouble EnglishNew - Based on an instrument found in Leipzig with no maker's marks. Blezinger thinks it's of Italian origin. I think it's from Nurnberg, probably by Schell, based on the turning. In any case it's the most powerful keyless baroque tenor now being made! The ergonomics are excellent and even players with small hands can get the low C! On top of everything else, the tone is supple and smooth even through the high notes. $2750
