Description
The
Meredith
Band
Instrument
Company
produced
cornets
in
Marion
from
1907
to
1921
. This
particular
instrument
lists
patents
issued
in
1909
and
1912
.
It
was
owned
and
played
by
Henry
Coleman
Baxter
, a
member
of the
Knights
of
Pythias
Band
in
Prospect
,
Ohio
,
which
performed
at the
St
.
Louis
World's
Fair
in
1903
.
It
measures
4.75
" by
7
" by
17.5
"
(12
by
17.8
by
44.5
cm)
. The
cornet
was
invented
in
Paris
in the
1820s
by
Jean-Louis
Antoine
. The
cornet
is
used
in
brass
bands
,
military
bands
, and
jazz
ensembles
.
It
looks
very
similar
to a
trumpet
. In
fact
,
both
are
valved
brass
instruments
pitched
in
B-flat
.
However
the
cornet
is
slightly
smaller
and has a
deeper
,
narrower
mouthpiece
. This
makes
the
instrument
more
flexible
and
allows
more
effective
control
of its
tone
.
