Trumpets used to be end-blown objects such as animal horns, bones, or bamboo. Tribes would use what the could from what they hunted. Obviously they wouldnt be exactly like trumpets because there wasnt valves but they were horns.
Records show that trumpets were used in religous services as early as 2000 C.B.E. The modern folded trumpet was created around 1400 C.E. And they have only modernized to todays trumpets.
This is really cool I didn't know trumpets went back so many years. Keep up the good work!

ReplyDeleteWow, I had no idea about this. I guess it makes sense that they would use animal horns. They were the right shape, hollow. I wonder how they made it make different notes. Or maybe they didn't. Just one note.
ReplyDeleteThis is cool i thought trumpets were newer instruments . Cant wait to see more
