Cornet d'écho

Cornet d'écho (Fr.) (Ger. : Echokornett; It.: cornetto in ecco), organ stop first mentioned in Como in 1650 and later known to Dom Bedos as a solo register. Its echo character was obtained by placing the pipes in a closed box. Gottfried Silbermann introduced it to Germany, but it was rarely built there. The pipes are similar to those of the cornet de récit, but sometimes of narrower scale (20, 133). Sort by:DefaultAuthorTitleDateAscendingDescending Bedos de Celle, François. L'Art du facteur…
