如果你知道piccolo flute 就一定知道piccolo trumpet了
cornet的形状和trumpet比较有一定差异，音色很不同，cornet更接近corn的形状，因此相对柔和一些
音高和筒长有关，在欧洲可以使任何一个调，楼上的图片。

The smallest of the
trumpet family is the
piccolo trumpet.The most common of these instruments are built to play in both B-flatand A, with separate leadpipes for each key. The tubing in the B-flatpiccolo trumpet is exactly one-half the length of that in a standardB-flat trumpet. Piccolo trumpets in G, F, and even high C are alsomanufactured, but are rarer.
The piccolo trumpet in D is also known as the
Bach trumpet, and was invented in about 1890 by the Belgian instrument maker Victor Mahillon to play the high trumpet parts in music by
Bach and
Handel.
The modern piccolo trumpet enables players to play the difficult trumpet parts of Baroque music, such as Bach's second
Brandenburg concertoand B-minor Mass. Adolf Scherbaum was the first to specialize in thepiccolo trumpet repertoire and to discover new baroque works, doingoriginal transcriptions.
Maurice André further developed the modern piccolo repertoire, playing the instrument for 50 years.
The sound production technique is basically the same as that used onthe larger B-flat trumpet. Air pressure and tonguing are different, andsome players use a shallower
mouthpiecefor the piccolo trumpet. Almost all piccolo trumpets have four valvesinstead of three — the fourth valve usually lowers the pitch by afourth. This extends the low range and provides alternate fingeringsand improved intonation for some notes.
The piccolo trumpet solo in
The Beatles' "
Penny Lane", which introduced the instrument to pop music, was played by David Mason.
Paul McCartney was dissatisfied with the initial attempts at the song's instrumental fill (one of which is released on
Anthology 2), and was inspired to use the instrument after hearing Mason's performance in a
BBC radio broadcast of the second
Brandenburg Concerto [1] and asking
George Martin what the "tremendously high" trumpet was. Eventually Mason recorded the solo using a piccolo trumpet in A.
[2]. Use of the instrument is now commonplace in many musical genres.
Maurice André,
Ludwig Güttler,
Wynton Marsalis, and
Hakan Hardenberger are some well-known piccolo trumpet players.
