Overview Blackwood English Horn Bell 140x70x70 mm:

At the furthest end from the player is the bell, which in the English horn has a characteristic pear shape. This bell -called Liebesfuß- of the cor anglais gives it a more rounded timbre than that of the oboe, closer in tonal quality to the oboe d'amore.

Blackwood is an extremely dense African wood, extremely dark in color with purplish-brown tones. With a fine, straight grain and often unnoticeable pores, it is very easy to obtain an extremely shiny piece without much effort. It has all the ideal mechanical qualities for wind instrument parts: hardness, resistance to humidity, ability to allow holes to be drilled to accommodate the keys, ease of turning... not to mention its spectacular and elegant appearance once it is finished. No wonder it is considered the queen of woods as far as instruments of the woodwind family are concerned.
