Conn New York Symphony “Special” Trumpet - $990

On consignment at The Tuba Lair! www.thetubalair.com


Conn New York Symphony “Special” Trumpet

Length = 18.5"

Bell = 4.625"

Bore = 0.435"

Pitch = Bb

Finish: lacquer


Conn had been making the small-bore model 22B New York Symphony for many years when in 1935, they introduced the Special version. This added nickle-silver accents, a higher level of bell engraving, and probably a greater level of care in crafting it.


Here is how the 1940 catalog described it:

"The New York Symphony Special trumpet is remarkable for its amazing trumpet tone. As one great symphony player said, "It is the closest equivalent to vocal perfection I have ever experienced. Its tone sings, not penetrates, above the orchestra." Needless to say with reference to such an instrument, the intonation, response, workmanship, and valve action are the last word."


Includes original case
