Yeah cornets and trumpets definitely take a different approach. As a tuba player I feel pretty comfortable on cornets and flugels, but trumpets confuse me a bit. I can nail a high C on a flugel but struggle to get above a top line F on trumpet.
Seth; Thanks for commenting! Your range on the flugel is super. :) I played French Horn in school and have never had the range on trumpet that I did on the Horn. Again, thanks for commenting!
Jonathan, what differences do you perceive between the Olds Ambassador, Recording and Special cornets?
The Olds Ambassador has the same wrap as the Special, but as it's all brass it lacks the tonal difference. A good Ambassador can be a very fine instrument though; I've had one Ambassador trumpet that was a superb player. In cornets though, I've not has as much experience with Ambassador's. Here's what I like about the late model Special (the early model Special was all brass); it has a thick nickel-silver bell (and I really like Nickel-Silver in brass instruments), with the addition of a bronze tip on the end of the bell. I think the Nickel-Silver and Bronze tip give it what I call a 'complex' sound, it's just a superb sounding cornet. I have two Olds Recordings now; from '56 and '66. The '56 (for sale at present) is almost all Re-O-Loy ( Bronze, according to the Horntrader). The leadpipe (and it is curved but long) and all the bell is Bronze. Along with the wrap (which certainly contributes to the tone) the '56 plays quite dark: It's a great compliment to a brighter trumpet. The '66 Recording cornet I have has a nickel-silver leadpipe; it plays just a bit brighter - but not as much brighters as I'd expected with its nickel-silver leadpipe; this is why I think the wrap of the cornet yields to its dark tone as well. ;) I hope this helps - great question! :)
@@JonathanMilam1 AWESOME answer! Thanks so much!
My pleasure! :)
Notoriety is not a good. Recognition is a good.
Well said.
