I've just received my May issue of B.B.W. What a delight to read in "The life of Brian" quote"when he's on song, his lovely unaffected tone makes you wonder why so many of our excellent players are hell-bent on making their cornets sound like trumpets". When are all these so called experts (mainly trumpet players or people who double on both) going to stop knocking the best of the British cornet players for their sound(mainly the use of VIB).Most of the contributors don't seem to know that they are not the same instrument,one a little longer than the other. The true Brass band cornet player wouldn't waste time playing a trumpet as it will detract from their sound.After all this is a Brass band list!!! And why over the last 2 years has Phillip McCann been subjected to so much criticism ,but then he's probably never heard of most of you people. And to close this little missel (something like a Papal bull) ,don't quote to me the couple of players that can do both very well they are the exception not the rule. Ron Grice. Conductor. Cornet player, True Brass Band lover Newcastle Australia. ---------- > From: A.
