[Dixielandjazz] 5. Re: Cornet vs. Trumpet (RickeyZ)

RickeyZ said "So, I am perplexed by the fondness for the sharp tone of the trumpet, 
and I wonder why anyone would play trumpet, if they could sound like BIX???"


Maybe because NOBODY can sound like Bix! ...and by going to trumpet they wouldn't be expected to. 
(granted, some like Andy Schumm do an incredible job and we are thankful for THAT!)
