"These sheet-metal horns produce only one sound. A melody is created by combining the sounds and rhythms of all the musicians. Konè are played by bands who walk the streets, generally under the direction of a leader. The bands form the structure of the carnival, and their primary role is to entertain people during this period of celebration. They sing, dance, juggle and perform magic tricks. " - Haiti Cultural Exchange (2015-10-15). Konè is a tin low-brass instrument, similar to a trumpet. ... [Information pulled from Oxfam Education Oxfam Education on Global Music Lesson]. Facebook."Konè is a tin low-brass instrument, similar to a trumpet. The Konè varies in length, each length of producing a single pitch. The instruments bear a resemblance to Dungchen (Tibetan Horn) and Alpine horns. Both Swiss and Tibetan cultures have developed low-pitched brass instruments that have a particular resonance and which create the most wonderful atmospheric sounds. Although the context of carnival music is different from the ceremonial music of Tibet or the traditional music of Switzerland, the Haitian Konè share significant similarities in both design and sound that bind them together. The Konè creates a unique feeling and atmosphere characteristic of Haitian Carnival & Rara.
