Play Like Your Favorite Chicago Symphony Orchestra Trumpet Player - The Bach C190SL229C "Chicago" C Trumpet in Silver-Plated
The all-new Bach Stradivarius C trumpet, Model C190SL229C, is the result of a collaboration with Esteban Batallán, Principal Trumpet of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. This project targeted the most famous set of Mt. Vernon C trumpet models that Vincent Bach sold to the Chicago Symphony Orchestra in 1955, specifically the instrument used by the late Adolph “Bud” Herseth, Principal Trumpet of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra from 1948 to 2001. All features of this model combine to provide an incredible response, projection, versatility, and the beautiful sound required to perform in the Chicago Symphony Orchestra.
