Natural trumpets were originally used as military instruments for acoustic signals, but had their place in the orchestra even into the early romantic period. This pack contains recordings of three different natural trumpets. The instruments were recorded in the relatively dry and controlled environment of Vienna’s second studio, the Silent Stage, and offer all typical articulations.
Lip Service. The valveless instruments are characterized by their long tubing compared to modern trumpets. They can only produce notes of the natural harmonic series, from the 3rd to the 16th, of the corresponding key, but impure harmonics and even chromatic notes can be achieved with advanced “lipping” techniques (i.e., flattening or sharpening the tuning with changes in embouchure).
Long Standing. Although used in Venetian ceremonial music of the 16th century, the natural trumpets experienced their heyday in the Baroque period, when composers such as Bach, Händel, Vivaldi and Telemann created works for the instrument. They continued to be used throughout the classical era and even into the early romantic period.
Recording. The instrument samples were recorded rather dry at the Silent Stage, making it possible to place it on your virtual stage wherever you like, but also to integrate it with the Synchron Series collections. Use the internal convolution reverb for perfect placement options in the large hall of Vienna Synchron Stage, or switch off any internal reverb and use an external reverberation tool of your choice, such as the rooms of Vienna MIR Pro 3D.
