Like Peter, we use basset horns regularly here in Montreal, for Mozart (operas, Gran Partita, Requiem, etc) and for things like Richard Strauss operas.
"Wow, the basset horn is definitely expensive, I guess Ill just stick to an Alto until I can afford one."
If money is tight but you want a basset horn, you can have a low D added to an alto clarinet and that gives you the range of the basset horn (a low C on basset horn is the equivalent of a low D on alto clarinet).
