Used Lange contra bassoon. An excellent Heckel like contra made in the early 1900s.
Our understanding is that Lange worked at Heckel, then started making instruments under his own name. A lawsuit ensued and he stopped making instruments.
Please click here to see Jonathan Westerling's video about this contrabassoon.
Trials at Forrests are available by appointment.
