The serpent (latin: serpens “snake”) is easily recognized by its exceptional visual appearance. The instrument was developed in France in the 16th century, covering the bass register of the zink (cornett/cornetto) family of instruments. The instruments were recorded in the relatively dry and controlled environment of our second studio, the Silent Stage, and offer all typical articulations.
