Jimmy Burke was a real, old-school, cornetist and I agree that cornets became more like trumpets for a bit (thinking of the various "long bell" models, and that some trumpets have become more like cornets (especially the high trumpets. Schilke once commented to me that his E2L was really a cornet).

Off topic, do you know a Kiwi trumpeter named Bede Williams? He was at CalArts last spring on exchange from the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama and a real pleasure to work with. Bede turned me on to the trumpet & MAX/MSP pieces of Michael Clarke.

Best,
EC
