Re: Period Music Debate

Well, the ONLY instrument which has not been taken in its historical place, is the trumpet.
So often we heard holed trumpets on historical ensembles. WHY ???
It is possible to play in tune ("modern" tune) if you study just 20 min. per day -I assume you are a good piston trumpeter-.
Holes are for lazy players.
Best wishes
