	Cor anglais - LoveToKnow 1911
		The cor anglais differs slightly in construction from the oboe; the conical bore of the wooden tube is wider and slightly longer, and there is a larger globular bell and a bent metal crook to which the double reed mouthpiece is attached.
		The bending of the tube and the development of the cor anglais as solo instrument originated in Germany, unless the oboe da caccia was identical with the cor anglais, in which case Italy would be the country of origin.
		The other hypothesis is that when the cor anglais was given a bend in order to facilitate the handling, the name was adopted to mark its resemblance to a kind of hunting-horn said to be in use in England at the time.

	Cor anglais or oboe
		On the other hand, i love playing cor within the texture of the orchestra, the mellow sound blends gorgeously, and you can get some beautiful harmonies, rather than always being on the top part.
		Another advantage to cor is that you don`t actually have to tune the orchestra, which is one of my least favourite responsibilities!
		when it came to the bass oboe for mars, we found it was far too expensive to rent a bass oboe for the concert, so instead we had two cor anglais players, and transposed the bass oboe part for cor, putting it up an octave when necessary.

		The most noticable involvement of the cor anglais is in the form of solos, all of which seem to be emotional, mellow and rich in tone.

	Cor Anglais
		The cor anglais or English horn is a musical instrument of the woodwind family.
		The technique of playing the cor anglais is the same as playing the oboe, but it is tuned a perfect fifth lower, having a range from the E flat below middle C to the A a thirteenth above middle C. It is perceived to have a mellower and more plaintive tone than the oboe.
		A common explanation of the name is that it is a corruption of the French cor anglé, meaning bent horn, although there is no certainty that this is the case.

	Cor anglais Information
		The cor anglais, or English horn, is a double reed woodwind musical instrument in the oboe family.
		Whereas the oboe is the soprano instrument of the oboe family, the cor anglais is generally regarded as the alto member of the family, and the oboe d'amore, pitched between the two in the key of A, is the mezzo-soprano member.
		In film scores, the cor anglais is heard as a solo instrument as frequently (if not more) than the oboe, most likely because of its rounder tone quality.

		The cor anglais, as it was called in France when introduced in the early 18th century, is actually a kind of tenor oboe, which sounds a fifth lower than the more familiar orchestral oboe.
		A very common explanation for the name of this instrument is that 'cor anglais' is actually a corruption of the phrase 'cor anglé'; however, this suggestion is strongly contested.
		English horns at one time did have curves or angles, but since the late nineteenth century, straight-bodied instruments have become the rule; a curve in the instruments' mouthpiece allows the player to hold the English horn close to their body.

	Refit for Cor Anglais and Bassoon
		My motivation for investigating this was initially to solve the problem of cork breaking and falling off the bocals after only a short period.
		This is a general problem with the bocals for Cor Anglais; because the applied cork has to be very thin at the bottom, it is prone to be damaged when the bocal is inserted in the instrument.
		Besides solving this cork problem - the first tubes made showed a positive effect on the response and sound from the Cor Anglais, which I hadn't expected.
