Showing 10 ItemsBrass Trumpet
The trumpet is the smallest, highest-sounding instrument in the brass section of the Western orchestra. It is a cylindrical aerophone with a direct, brassy timbre. The cornet is very similar to the trumpet, but has a more conical bore, giving it a slightly gentler, mellower sound. Both trumpets and cornets are common in bands and wind ensembles of all kinds
