Beautiful sound. I have just got one, the 9 key Wessex version.
Do you know if there is a fingering chart somewhere?

[@StCeciliasHall]

There are a number of fingering charts available here: www.serpentwebsite.com/finger.htm

@@StCeciliasHall Yes that is only for the Bb and C Ophecleide, do you know what the fingering is for the Eb Alto Ophilceide i.e. Quinticlave?

​@@audioin9105When in doubt, mess around and find out

[@jomarluke]

Is that an ophicleide or a quinticlave?

[@StCeciliasHall]

It is the quinticlave - thanks for pointing this out. We will fix the videos!
