The Evolution of the Bugle


Green2Bloooo

Recommended Posts

I've been searching the web but I cannot find a formal timeline. I am looking for a timeline which shows the evolution of the bugle from valveless bugle to modern 3-valve Bb "bugle".

Does anyone have a timeline or know of where one may be online??

Thank you in advance!

(project being presented Dec. 5th)

Hint: "The History of Drum and Bugle Corps"

Yeah... I saw that for sale on a few websites... $85 I don't have.

It's for my music education class, we're required to teach mini-lessons to the class, setting up the entire scenario from what age the class is to what they've already learned etc etc.

Are you asking about drum and bugle corps instruments specifically?

I mean, in the 1820's-40's there was a big question as to whether the keyed bugle (keyed like a saxophone) or the cornet was going to become the predominant band solo instrument.

They history of the keyed bugle can be found by searching for Ralph Dudgeon's name.

This is going to end up being about a 15 minute presentation due to the time limit. Basically I'm hoping to simply construct a timeline handout that I can give everyone that shows the evolution from the valveless "field bugle" to the modern valve brass instruments like trupet and tuba.

Then you might want to include a side note about keyed bugles. Simply state that from valveless, two directions were tried;keys and valves. Valves won out, just as VHS won over BETA...but that was probably because the porn industry went with valves... :laugh:
