IDENTIFICATION

It is a instrument that produces sound by sympathetic vibration of air in a tubular resonator in sympathy with the vibration of the player’s lips. It is also called labrosones or labrophones from Latin and Greek elements meaning ‘lip’ and ‘sound’.

It is a brass instrument made of tubing wrapped into a coil with a flared bell.

It is the only instrument in the brass family that uses a slide instead of valves to change pitch.

It is a slender brass pipe with three attached valves, which curved and bent into long loops.

It is the grandfather of the brass family and the largest and lowest brass instrument.
