Problem: My son wants to know how a trumpet works

Kevin James

Age 39

Help!

My son has come back from school and has all these questions about musical instruments. I know how most of them work but I have no idea how a trumpet works.

I have a couple of questions.

What is the wide bit at the end of the trumpet for? Why is it shaped like that.

Also why does it have that weird folded shape?

Do you have any information about how the trumpets were used in war? What is the purpose of them?

Please help, I really don’t want to seem dumb in front of my son.

Thanks heaps

Kevin
