Itwasfirst used for signaling in ancient China (2000 B.C.), Egypt (15008.C,), andScandinavia(10008.C). The trumpet was long and had no valves. By Roman times, the trumpet was also played at military and civilian cer- emonies. The first musical use of the trumpet was in the late 1300's, when it acquired the folded shape similar to today’s trumpet. In the 1500's, Nuremberg Germany became the center of trumpet making. It was during, that time that the first music for trumpets was written, In the late 1700's, the trumpet became a regular member of the orchestra. Crooks (short pieces of tubing) were invented and were used to lengthen or shorten the trumpet so it could be used to play more notes. In 1815, the valvewasinvented which made the crooks unnecessary. Now, the trumpet could play any note of the scale by using the valves. Trumpets and cornets are typically made of brass or other metal, usualy silver-plated or lacquered. Today, trumpets are played in bands, orchestras, jazz bands, brass ensembles, and popular music. Pw2iTP Cornet HISTORY The cornet's history begins with the post horn of the late 1500's. The posthorn wasashortinstrument used to signal the approach of the mail wagon. Over time, the instrument was lengthened and itwas used to play fanfaredike calls, The addition of valves to the post horn in 1828 formed the modern valve comet. The mellow sound of the cornet wasinstantly popular and many briliant cornet solos were written from 1850to 1900, Thecometwas popularin jazz bands until 1920, when itwas replaced by the trumpet. Today, comets are played primarily in school, commu- nity, and military bands. The comet often plays the same musicas the trumpet, although sometimes there is a separate comet part.
