. Programme. n other countries for signals and simple tones produced are the open harmonies of the tube. The Ranz des Vaches isassociated with it.

The solo for English horn in Rossinis overtureto William Tell is too often played by an oboe. The statement is made in GrovesDictionary of Music and Musicians (Revised Edition) that this solo was originallyintended for a tenoroon and played by it. Mr. Cecil Forsyth, in his Orchestration,says that this assertion is a mistake, based probably on the fact that the part waswritten in the old Italian notation ; that is to say, in the bass clef an octave belowits proper pitch. (The tenoroon, now obsolete, was a small bassoon pitched a fifthhigher than the standard instrument.).
