Re: Cornet

Hate to tell you but it's too late. Trumpet (cornet) is not something that you pick up when you feel like it, press hard and blow, hoping against hope that a higher note will emerge, then when it doesn't, you press even harder and blow even more. Despite what people think, a sensitive trumpet embouchure takes a long time to properly develop, probably longer than most other wind instruments.
I don't think that between now and the end of May you could get far enough into Arbans to make a difference.
And with all respect to John, it'll take more than 'good luck'.
