Daily Instrument — Ophicleide 

The ophicleide is a brass instrument from 19th century France, literally called “serpent with keys”. The ophicleide was made to play the lowest notes in the brass section. However due to the difficulty the instrument took to play once the tuba was invented it quickly got replaced and died out. The ophicleide’s body is a long tube and has 9–12 keys. The keys are placed where the player can reach them rather than what is the most sensical, making the instrument troublesome to play.
