TrumpetToday's trumpet(喇叭)is one of the word's oldest instruments. It's the result of many centuries of development. Although it looks nothing like its ancestors(祖先), there are many similarities. All trumpets are hollow tubes(管). They are all blown. And they all use the player's lips to produce the basic sound.
The trumpet developed as players and makers worked to improve its design, size, shape, material. and method of construction. They wanted to create an instrument that would produce a beautiful and attractive tone, enable the performer to play all the notes of the scale, extend the range(范畴)higher and lower, make it possible to play more difficult music and, in general, be easier to play well. The remarkable(出众的)way in which the modern trumpet achieves these goals is a measure of the success of all those who struggled to perfect this glorious(光荣的)instrument.
The trumpet is actually the leading member of an entire family of related instruments. There are trumpets of several different sizes, and in several different keys. There are cornets(短号), bugles(军号), and a number of others that are all similar to the trumpet in the way they are made and played.
The trumpet family is much more than a group of related instruments that can stir(搅动)one with their sound, or narrow tubes of metal capable of(有潜能的)producing a variety of musical sounds. It is a link to many different periods of history and to people of many cultures. From the use of trumpets in ancient religious ceremonies(宗教大典)to the part they play in modern rock bands, the trumpet family of instruments has much to tell about civilization(文明)and its development.
