Trumpet 1/2 - Brass orchestra [sound combinations]
General information about the sound combinations with the trumpet
The unison combination between trumpets and trombones or horns has the function of sound massing. In general, connections between instruments result in a "new" timbre. Especially if their formant doesn't match.
The combination of trumpet and horn sounds also results in a "new" timbre. In which the power and brightness of the trumpet sound and at the same time the softness of the horn sound combine. But when using the damper, the difference in tone color is almost eliminated.
The tonal relationships are more complicated when the trumpet is combined in unison with the woodwinds. A clear dynamic restraint on the trumpet is necessary for the woodwind instruments to come into their own.
The unison of the trumpets with the string instruments, e.g. B. in tutti, results in an intensification of the sound. A homogeneous sound fusion does not occur in such a situation. With careful dynamic adjustment, unison combinations with (almost) homogeneous sound effects are possible.
