Description:
Thomas Harper Jnr (1816-1898) was the foremost slide trumpet player of his day. However, the slide trumpet was not capable of playing chromatically in all registers, so trumpeters also performed on the cornet, even though the sound was considered inferior by many commentators. Harper's School for the Cornet à Pistons was published by Rudall, Carte & Co. in 1865, a decade before his trumpet tutor. In the twentieth century this cornet tutor was largely forgotten. The 15 studies presented here are from the end of the Harper Jnr tutor. Few marks of expression were included by Harper Jnr and it has mainly been the addition of these that has been the task of the editor, to encourage expressive performances of these studies, which are typical of the Romantic era.
