Abstract (en)

History of the trumpet marine from its origin in the classical and Medieval monochord to its decline in the 18th c.; includes accounts of nomenclature, types, construction, performance technique, music, and surviving instruments; as well as 122 historical illustrations, 12th-20th cs.. The reviewer finds that despite some inaccuracies the organological value of this work is immense, for both historians and performers.
