[MusicTlk] The cornett

[rjaquiss]

Hello:

 

     For some reason, I decided to find out what the baroque cornett sounded
like.  The cornett has a mouth piece like a brass instrument but finger
holes like a recorder. Here are two Youtube links:

The following link is to the playing of a serpent. The serpent also has a
brass type mouthpiece and finger holes.

Enjoy!
