Recorded on December 31, 2010 using a Flip Video camera. J.c. Sherman, new serpentist, takes advantage of some down-time before a Cleveland POPS concert to try out his instrument. Is this the first time a Serpent has been played in Severance Hall? "Caught on tape" on New Year's Eve 2010!

  • Funny story about Handel - he first heard a serpent when he conducted an English orchestra. According to the story, he stopped the rehearsal and asked in his thick Saxon accent, "Vot de diffel be dat?"

  • sounds like a cross between an oboe , a euphonium, and a french horn.
