This Historic Winds Pack brings the Serpent from our acclaimed VI Historic Winds I Collection to Stage A of Synchron Stage Vienna. It has been re-edited and optimized for the Vienna Synchron Player, increasing both the flexibility and ease-of-use of all articulations for a quick and creative workflow.

The serpent (latin: serpens 'snake") is easily recognized by its exceptional visual appearance. The instrument was developed in France in the 16th century, covering the bass register of the zink (cornett/cornetto) family of instruments. Serpents are usually made out of wood covered by leather. In the middle of the 18th century the serpent began to appear in military bands and orchestras, where it stayed until the middle of the 19th century, as it was the only wind instrument that could perform at louder volumes in larger ensembles and venues. The instrument is extremely hard to play and requires great skills and effort from the player. Parts originally written for the Serpent were therefore replaced by the Ophicleide and later by the contra bassoon, French horn, trombone, tuba or euphonium.
 
Various composers of the Baroque, Classical and Romantic periods wrote parts for serpent, e.g., H¤ndel (Music for the Royal Fireworks and Water Music), Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, Mendelssohn (in "A Midsummer Night's Dream"), Berlioz (in his 'symphonie fantastique"), and Wagner (in his opera "Rienzi"). The serpent was rediscovered in the 20th century by legendary film music composers such as Bernard Hermann (1959: Journey to the Center of the Earth) and Jerry Goldsmith, who used it to create "alien" sounds for Ridley Scott's legendary sci-fi horror movie "Alien" (1979).
 
The Synchron Player's integrated convolution reverb adds the outstanding ambience of the 540 m² (5,813 sq.ft.) main hall of Synchron Stage Vienna to the dry samples in real-time. Expertly crafted mixer presets place the instrument at its perfect spot on stage, resulting in a production-ready sound "out of the box" that blends seamlessly with the instruments of SYNCHRON-ized Woodwinds as well as with every other product in the Synchron Series.

Rapid mold growth
The parts where soap wasn’t touching 24/7 mildewed very quickly. and this doesn’t sit in water, it hangs on a hook beyond where the shower stream reaches. I didn’t even get halfway through a bar of soap before I realized it wasn’t that my soap turned the bag white, it was that the top half turned green with mold. The smell test was brutal.

Multi Purpose/Good Lather
Rich Lather. Durable. I also use and compared this to Dr. Sqauch's travel bags to keep your soap from getting destroyed. it does the same thing for 1/4 of the price. I would buy again when the time comes if the price is roughly the same.

Saves a Ton of Soap
Really great product if you wanna save soap bars and not have to buy new ones every couple of weeks. Not as scratchy as I thought it would be and it can be a bit awkward to use. Still a good product though.

It’s practical, user-friendly, and tailored for law enforcement needs.
Format: Paperback
This book has been an absolute gem as I prepare to apply for a law enforcement job where Spanish is a required skill. It’s well-organized, easy to follow, and covers practical vocabulary and phrases that are directly relevant to real-world scenarios. Not only is it incredibly useful, but it’s also engaging and fun to use, making learning feel less like a chore. The structure allows me to focus on the most important phrases for law enforcement situations, and it’s already helping me feel more confident about communicating effectively in Spanish.
