BRASS FROM THE PAST: Extremely Rare 1898 Boston Musical Instrument Manufactory (Three Star) “NE plus ultra” Ab/A/Bb/B Cornet. Made in Boston, Massachusetts. This cornet came from the collection of Chris Belluscio. I feel honored that he passed it on to me. This is the most intricately engraved cornet that I have ever seen. Every square inch has been beautifully engraved, except the inside of the bell. I take extra time in the video to try and show all the engraving. This cornet is gold plated, but there are many touch-points where the gold has worn off from many years of use. This cornet came with a complete set of crooks, shanks and tuning bits. Technically, it only plays in A and Bb and high and low pitch with these accessories. But I have pushed it past its limits. I begin the demonstration playing in the key of B, then Bb, A, and Ab. Then I insert the quick-change slide and begin playing the same key changes again, but faster. I could have even gone down to the key of G but that would have been impractical. Listen to sounds from the past. About 127 years ago more or less. Here is a tune that was popular back in that time period. William Billings: “Chester”.
