This alto ophicleide, created by Ludwig Embach & Co. circa 1830-1840, is a brass instrument with a distinctive, conical bore and a wide bell. This instrument, related to the tuba, was popular in the 19th century for its rich sound and versatility in orchestral and band music. The ophicleide's design features several valves that allow for a wide range of pitches and tones, giving musicians flexibility in musical expression.
