Longa

Treble cornett in G
Original design

The Longa features a narrow bore with wider tonehole spacing, offering excellent playability in the higher registers and a fast, responsive attack perfect for solo playing and fast passaggi. The increased distance between its smaller-diameter toneholes ensures precise tone focus while allowing for convenient fingerings, such as the thumb-only G-sharp and others. The Longa is known for its midrange-focused timbre, highly praised for its rich tonal color. While the 440 Hz version is well-suited for players with larger hands, the 465 Hz version, where this model truly excels, is particularly manageable for those with smaller hands.

Larger tone holes provide greater flexibility in intonation, allowing for expressive control. Well-balanced in both design and sound, the Brevis is an excellent choice for those seeking a more ergonomic playing experience without compromising on depth and resonance.
