| ilike,
I too started on the cornet; an Olds Super, rented from Lyon & Healy in Chicago when I was 6. My own boys (now a sophmore and junior in high school) play both the piano and cornet/trumpet.
When I offered to buy my youngest a trumpet last year, his response was "but I'm a cornetist, Dad . . . ". I guess he's another example of an apple falling close to the tree.
Best,
