 | Louis's Mute (and the history of mutes in general)? Hi all, I know that Louis Armstrong only really used a straight mute... anybody know what kind? For that matter, does anyone have a source for the general history of mutes? I was surprised to find that cornettos were often muted in the 16th/17th century. But when did metal straights come into common currency? I was wondering in particular for works like stravinsky, that we find to be so "metallic" in nature. What about the harmon? I know it's called for in some pieces in the 50s, predating Miles and all. When and where did it become common? Another dance band thing? I'm ignorant... anybody got the goods on mute history? |
