[Dixielandjazz] Sarrusophones

[Stephen Barbone]

To get a look at Sarrusophones, check out the below link.

Then scroll down past the pictures of the double reeds to the section
marked "The Sound". In the second paragraph you will see a reference to
the Bechet recording with Clarence Williams. A nice write up about it.
And you can hear 22 seconds of it on your choice of MP3, Real Audio, or
WAV.

You can also hear Louis Armstrong playing along with him.

Cheers,
Steve Barbone

PS. Clearly have too much time on my hands today.
