The "Cornet Omnitonique" (1847) by Gautrot aîné, a French instrument maker, is a brass instrument with a unique design, featuring a wide bell and a complex system of valves. Its name, which translates to "all-tone cornet," alludes to its ability to play a wide range of notes. This intricate instrument, now housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, stands as a testament to 19th-century craftsmanship and the evolution of musical instruments.
