This brass "Invention horn crook" was created by Carl Gottlob Schüster between 1850 and 1950. It is an example of a musical instrument component used to connect different sections of a horn. This particular crook is made of two sections of tubing, joined together by a crossbar and a single long coiled section. The crook is a critical component of the horn, allowing the musician to alter the length of the instrument's tubing and therefore its pitch. This "Invention horn crook" is a testament to the ingenuity of instrument makers and their quest for improved sound and playability.
