"Chromatic Bass Horn" is a musical instrument created by Johann Heinrich Gottlieb Streitwolf, a German instrument maker who lived between 1779 and 1837. The instrument, dated c. 1820-1830, features a long, cylindrical body with a bell-shaped mouthpiece, crafted from wood and brass. Notably, the body comprises two parallel sections, each with multiple valves and decorative brass accents, suggesting a complex mechanism for manipulating its sound. The piece is a testament to Streitwolf's innovative design and craftsmanship in the early 19th century, showcasing a period of experimentation in musical instrument construction.
