I've located heckelphone #5022 in Berlin, Germany; it is owned and played by the Berliner Philharmoniker - see https://t.co/zPsc1mW3TK . Linked from there, you can find a nice video of Christoph Hartmann explaining and playing the instrument. Enjoy!

Exciting news! The article on the repertoire collection for heckelphone and bass oboe has appeared in Volume 44, Number 3 of The Double Reed! https://t.co/oU1oHaZ1Mz

[heckelphone.org @heckelphon]

In celebration of this, I've significantly extended the online version with (fully automatically generated) tables and figures, as well as chronological versions of the lists for #heckelphone and bass oboe, as well as excerpts for various kinds of pieces. https://t.co/U6GRMY3Io5

It would be wonderful if the company were to allow you to post a teaser clip from Creature, featuring heckelphone … 🌡🎶

[heckelphone.org @heckelphon]

It's marvellous that this is scored for #heckelphone, thus creating more opportunities for the instrument (and your playing it) being heard in public, live performances!

[heckelphone.org @heckelphon]

Great! When will #Creature be first performed?

[heckelphone.org @heckelphon]

I'd love to hear from or about any other heckelphonists in Russia, Japan or any other country that's not well represented on the current list of players.

[heckelphone.org @heckelphon]

Very excited to have learned about two heckelphonists in Russia: Anastasiya Tabankova (Анастасия Табанкова) and Vladimir Zisman (Владимир Зисман) - see https://t.co/IOIowXfp0E. This results in 66 heckelphonists on my list, of which 42 are believed to be actively playing.
