"My hope is that this can be something that we all learn from going forward. I know we certainly have... Thank you to the Cornetts for allowing me to introduce myself... and let you know I am so sorry that we were part of this portion, in story, in chapter, of your family's life."

Giving the Copenhagen Cornetts & Sackbutts people a listen first. Sounding unmistakably festive, what with all that brass topped off by a vocal ensemble, very cheering

music is mostly choral, accompanied by wind instruments like alphorns, cornetts, and serpentones, with rich harmonies crafted to echo in stone chambers and through mountain valleys

Tänään pajassa päätimme, mitä ryhmämme soittaa joulukonsertissa, mahdollisesti 26.11. klo 18, suunnilleen, Oulunkylän kirkossa. Soitettavat kappaleet ovat Matthew Locken Allemande ja Sarabande sarjasta ”Music for His Majesty’s Sagbuts and Cornetts”.

Hi Mark. Surviving cornetts curve either way. If you imagine the traditional decani/cantores setup in church, having one left curving and one right curving means both play into the body of the building

Schutz's Christmas Story (1640) is a musical depiction of the Nativity, complete with angels, shepherds and wise men. This recording exploits the wide instrumental colours available, including dulcian, sackbuts and cornetts.

Surely I'm not the only person who remembers Monk's Gate on cornetts and shawms as the intro/outro music for 'Dangerous Journey', the children's adaptation of Pilgrim's Progress?
Real talk for church nerds: Is the tune Monk's Gate (He who wouuld valiant be) singable? Asking for a friend.
