Bagman, and Bigtiny, thanks also for your help. It's nice to get differing opinions that can all be of use for a new guy like me!

And Rowuk, thanks for the detailed explanation of getting the low notes related to the mouthpiece mechanics. Some things like that (which are taken for granted by experienced players) are exactly what I need to know in the long climb to the top-well, as long as I can make it to the switchbacks!

I do know about breath support from the flute-but I will keep it in mind as I play on the cornet too! Thanks again for all of your support, guys!

Also, I'm happy to hear that the cornet can be played with great results on the bottom end! That was a concern I had after not getting the nice bottom tones.
