NAME THE INSTRUMENT.
Sir,-While in Australia a few years ago I listened on several afternoons to Professor Bernard Heinz "Walking Through the Orchestra" with the children of the various towns which he visited. While demonstrating the oboe and the bassoon he mentioned an obsolete member of this family with a voice of intermediate pitch. This instrument .has probably been superseded by the Cor Anglais, though the name (also French, but a single word) escapes me. Could any listener identify it. please?
