Composed by Georges Hüe for the Conservatoire Contest (1900)  1st Solo De Cornet À Pistons is a piece for Cornet and Piano accompaniment dedicated to J. Mellet. Quite difficult (6°) it would demonstrate well the skills acquired by an advanced player during a contest but can also be performed for a recital as it's eminently enjoyable. Written in Bb minor the piece starts with the succession of lyrical parts by the Bassoon accompanied by the Piano and of some quieter ones with a more predominant Piano and a slower Bassoon. The piece then continues with a more energetic part reminiscent of a march supportedby some chords on the Piano. It closes on a faster section in Molto Vivace. It is really important for the Cornet player to master his breathing to execute this piece effectively. Georges Hüe (1858-1948) is a French musician and composer who composed numerous Operas including one created after the stories by Perrault.

Méthode complète de Cornet à Pistons for the Cornet Trumpet or Saxhorn composed by Guillaume Balay is a method for beginners in two volumes and one of the most complete for these instruments. This first volume focuses on the establishment of the music and on the quality of the sonority obtained. The first two chapters will therefore focus on the establishment of the rhythms. They are followed by some studies of scales and liaisons. The last three chapters concentrate on learning how to play certain nuances of melody arpeggios and syncopation. All techniques acquired while studying this volume would not befully effective if not followed by the study of Méthode complète de Cornet à Pistons Volume 2. Guillaume Balay (1871-1943) is a French Soloist and Composer. As a member of the military he was the Head of Music for the Republican Guard and composed many chamber music and solo music pieces for Cornets and other Wind instruments. He was also a respected music teacher.
