The heckelpone is a woodwind instrument invented at the dawn of the 20th century. Inspired by Richard Wagner and prominently used by Richard Strauss, it soon rose to prominence in its native Germany and far beyond. In this book, the history and use of this curious and obscure instrument serves as a thread running through the history of music, from the romantic period to the late 1960s.From the invention and making of musical instruments to the origins of widely known and all-but-forgotten composers and their works, from New Orleans jazz to atonal music, from 19th-century Germany to 20th-century Mexico, 'The Heckelphone' provides glimpses into 'a past of which one has been ignorant' - a past made of music, musicians, conductors, composers, instrument makers and collectors, who all play their parts in a series of intriguing, inter-weaving stories, told here to educate and entertain.
