  • Oh I knew it - both voices are yours. The reverb is not natural is it.

    But anyway great stuff pcerasi!

    I used to play both instruments too. It works as long as I keep them totally separated in my head when playing. When I play the cornett I have in mind that I was whistling.

  • Thanks! Yes, the reverb is added afterwards, I record in my bedroom to avoid having too much TV noise and kids screaming as accompaniment, so it gives a very dry sound!

    I also try as far as possible to have separate practice sessions for different instruments; but the other day, I had a concert playing mute cornett first (BWV 4) and then baroque trumpet (Vivaldi Gloria and Nelson Mass of Haydn); it worked fine, but the mouthpieces, blowing type and articulation are quite different!

  • Most importantly, getting the feeling for the right musical affect goes a long way for handling correctly each instrument. But I am still learning to cope with cornett, especially with intonation and sound stability!

  • Looks like you are still practicing very hard on the cornett (and hopefully not neglecting the trumpet). Did you play both voices?

  • Yes I am, hoping to get some payoff! I did indeed play both voices, but without listening to the other one (recording them separately), such that intonation and rhythm suffer somewhat!

  • And still practising trumpet... My next video will be trumpet, but I have to get back my trumpet lips first!
