Elizabethan Games And Past Times
Some Pleasant (?) Music
Rufford Park (2004)
One of our musicians demonstrating the Cornetti; a wooden instrument with a trumpet-like mouth piece.
It can produce a pleasant sound, though on its own it is difficult to play.
The Group owns a collection of robust instruments that it lends out to members who may be keen on trying an instrument. They also double at events for the public to have a try on - even though the Cornetti often sound like whale-song !.Photographer: Susanne Atkin
