playing german trpts just stick a bigger back boare on the mouth piece which compensates for the smaller boare in the trumpet then you can play as loud and as easy as you like.

I was fortunate enough to play in Germany for a few years and played a number of different rotary valve horns. The best word that comes to mind when comparing to valves, is effortless. It could be that I just played beautifully hand crafted trumpets, but that was my experience. Hope it helps (the Germans know what they are doing when it comes to design and building)

[quote="trumpetgeek234"]I was at Monke's in cologne a few weeks ago and got to try their trumpets. Since then I am wanting to have a German trumpet. I think I would use it for almost everything except Jazz. They play so much nicer and are just awesome! A must for a serious player!

The late, great, Claudio Roditi would have disagreed! He was a fine jazz trumpet player, and used rotary.

I attended a Maurice Andre recital in Carnegie Hall NYC with Jerome Callet and Claudio, and my wife. Maurice was flawless and brought the house down. Claudio picked up a woman.
