Thank you for discussing the differences between cornet and trumpet and the impact of mouthpiece.

I tried to do it once, about five years ago, and definitely didn't address the 'confirmation bias' section properly. Had to set the record straight.

A demonstration of the differences would be appreciated, even if you were to defer to other KZitemrs and their work.

Good video, I agree that a big part the difference between the two instruments is approach, this is also true of Flugels.

Very true. I approach cornet and flugel in largely the same way, even if they yield two different sounds.

Interesting, isn't it, how some debates like cornet/trumpet are misunderstood even by serious musicians? It really goes to show how muddy and inaccessible a lot of brass knowledge is. It's my goal to aid in the undoing of this.

Thanks for the explanation. I wonder in the future if you could explain the difference between a flugelhorn and trumpet. About all I know is that it’s more conical than a trumpet. Thanks!

You're on the right track! Flugelhorn is in fact much more conical than either of these two. I'll see if I can get around to a video on that soon.

I have the same conn coprion director. I love the sound especially if you compare it to a trumpet.

I found the Directors sound great if you can find one with the coprion (100% copper) bell! The one I reviewed a while ago on my channel had a yellow brass bell and didn't have quite the same subtlety of tone. Great horns though, considering they were marketed towards the student!

I play trumpet for eight or nine years now and I would like to just try a Cornet. What should I watch out for, when buying a (used) one? I know that for trumpets, a used Yamaha student model for ~250€, or around 600€ if the same model was new would be good. Can I get a Cornet also for that price?
@SamuelPlaysBrass

Is there anywhere that would allow you to try out a cornet without buying? (Instrument shop, school music department, friend or private instructor, etc.) Cornets are tougher to get for quite as low of a price and so it’s really important that you try a few out beforehand and know more or less what you are getting yourself into. There are Yamaha student models and Olds Ambassadors that pop up for similar prices sometimes, but I’m not the biggest fan of either of those.

@@yannnique17 revisiting this-see if you can find a beginner Getzen floating around for cheap. I am over the moon about a model 300 that I just acquired for under $150 including shipping. I’m also quite the Conn enthusiast and their cornets, though unconventional, often sound nice for fairly cheap. Just depends on the sort of cornet and sound you’re searching for.

Trumpet, Cornet, and Flugelhorn are very difficult for me to tell apart. Same with baritone and euphonium. Sometimes even trombone vs bass trombone, if they both have only the one trigger, and I’m a beginning trombone player!

If you look at pictures of trumpets, cornets, and flugelhorns, you’ll find that telling them apart is pretty straightforward. As for those other two combinations, yes, it can be very difficult, and sometimes there’s no good way to tell besides the sound.
