[In English: Around 1792, the Orphibaryton was provided by the Parisian instrument maker Forville with flaps and thus rebuilt to “Serpent-Forville” or “Basson Forville” (KUNITZ 1959, Bd. 8, 710).] - Craig Kridel. Instruments: The Serpent Forveille. Berlioz Historical Brass (BerliozHistoricalBrass.org)."The serpent Forveille was introduced in 1823 by the Parisian maker Forveille. The instrument consists of three sections, a swan-shaped bocal, a "zagged middle" section of metal, and a J-shaped wooden bell-stock. Made by a variety of instruments makers other than Forveille, notably Darche, Klemmer, and Turlot, the instrument was constructed in a more uniform manner than other bass horns. The serpent Forveille offers a delicate sound and must be seen as one of the more successful experiments among the varuiouys bass horns, invented by a gifted instrument designer who had already developed sophisticated keywork for the serpent d'eglise.
