High Pitch Cornett: This is an exciting and responsive instrument well suited for solo and ensemble playing of all varieties. Its well balanced medium sized bore allows for a fast response and even intonation that enables it to tackle virtuosic diminution and sonata repertoire while still maintaining vocal qualities and volume needed for large ensemble vocal and instrumental music. Its tone is rich in harmonics. Available in South American boxwood for added brilliance or German plumwood for added warmth and body.
