Echo cornets

[W.Rimmer]

I'm flushed with success at having just put together an echo cornet (details of this epic task are at http://freespace.virgin.net/andy.callard/EchoCornet.htm ). My question is, now that I've played Alpine Echoes through more times than I can count, what other little gems have been writtten for this instrument?

I've always wondered what an echo cornet was! It looks fantastic - can't wait to get onto a pc where I'll be able to hear it. I'm so impressed you built your own instrument, I think I'd be limited to making my own Hosaphone(TM) :wink:

Ummm... no idea about what else you can play on one, though. Sorry

Dont know about other pieces for the echo cornet, but I have one and it's a gem of an instrument... No doubt I'll be writing a new piece for it in the not too distant future

My teacher has one of them sovreign echo cornets, they're nice, and they eliminate the need for cumbersome mutes if you blow to the right effect with the 4th valve down

The torstein aagard nielsen cornet concerto has a section for echo cornet but its a beast of a piece so u'll hav to be pretty superb to play it!!!

I've finally polished it (horrible messy job) and had it silver plated. There are new photos of it looking magnificent at http://freespace.virgin.net/andy.callard/EchoCornet.htm
