Signals - The history of the Trumpet part 1 This video series is about the history of the trumpet and its musical context. The first video deals with the main task of trumpeters in the baroque era.: playing signals on the battlefields of the 17th and 18th century.

Notice on the second musical example of the harmonic series, the seventh partial was written as A and not Bb? That's quite significant because it demonstrates that the "folk music scale" is actually the natural scale. Folk music expresses the seventh partial as A too.
Hi Julian. This is such an incredible video and the work you are doing with this series is so important for our movement. Keep up the good work and I'm so excited for the next video. I have been in touch with Jean-Francois Madeuf about studying in Basel and would love the chance to talk to you about your experiences.
Later in that Manuscript there are as well Trumpetensemble Pieces, with Basse de Trompettes written in the same octave. Personally I think to write the Basse de Trompettes an octave to low has to do with the custom that french music is usually giving only one line to Basse de Trompettes and Timballes (even though one ocatave apart). So it became a custom to write low trumpet in the same Octave as the Tympani....check for exemple the Manuscript of the "Te Deum" of Charpentier on Imslp....it is just my guess....
That's a nice theory. The notation calls to mind the very strange notation of low horn parts in the 19th and early 20th century - in the bass clef but written an octave too low, which makes the part less legible because of the ledger lines. But the French Baroque practice might actually make sense, if that's what the players were used to reading. The Charpentier trumpet + timaballes parts are written at sounding pitch (the insts. are in D). Was this normal in French music? German parts (and scores) were written in C, as far as I know (Bach, e.g.)
In Trumpet ensemble it is usually notated in C, wich makes sense since the Instruments just all have to be the same length. In scores with other instruments it is sounding pitch: often the trumpet is part of the Dessus, so it is up to the Trumpeter to find out what he can play. No exemple of parts would come mind at the moment....

I think he's swiss.

OMG that pedal C was great. when I think of trumpet, i think high notes. I'll be creating interesting music using the natural trumpet....
Hi Julian, great video! Beautiful playing too.
Thanks Katie!
Very nice!
looking forward to part 2.

If i liked the video?? It was great!!👍. Keep up the good work!
Thanks much for the diversion. Please do more! I'm stuck inside of an town house and haven't had a place to practice 😥
What about the Basement?
Awesome I was looking for something exactly like this, thank you!
Wow! Now I know what the signal is. It occurs also in the Grande Bataille de Waterloo from Chr. Friedrich Ruppe!

Hi Wayne, sure, you can as well send me a message through the contactform on my website.....nice playing on your channel by the way!
naturaltrumpet84 great. I'll be in touch soon. Glad you like my playing.☺️
The Philidor looks like it was written down an octave. Why?
I want to "like" this video a hundred times....
