Trumpet

The trumpet is a bright and powerful brass instrument that has been used in music for hundreds of years. Known for its clear, bold sound, it can play everything from exciting fanfares to smooth, expressive melodies. Whether in an orchestra, a jazz band, or a marching band, the trumpet stands out and adds energy and emotion to every performance.

What type of trumpet does my child need?

When you are first starting out on an instrument, your child just needs a basic student model of their chosen instrument.

The trumpet you will start on will be a B-flat trumpet. Some brands and models that are perfect for students starting out are:

• Yamaha YTR2330
• Jupiter 606ML
• Carol Brass CTR-2000H-YSS-BBL
• BACH TR300
