| | A word from “Relic”…..
This is the background on which I base my opinion of the instruments sold by our company:
I’ve played brass instruments and others including strings and keyboards for 50+ years, principal instrument being the B Flat trumpet
Taught privately, in a music store, and in a college conservatory
Directed in various instrumental and choral situations
Recorded live and in studio
Performed in venues from intimate indoors to stadium outdoors, from orchestra pits & stages to TV studios
Have written original instrumental and choral music and done custom arrangements for 50+ years
Have sold instruments in a music store
Have done my own restorations for the past 8 years
Received invaluable insight and advice on trumpet playing from personal time spent with Elden Benge
Having been most appreciated over the years for my general musical interpretation and my trumpet tone quality, I’m known to have both a discerning ear for musical presentation and a readiness to express my opinion. (obviously)
I accept many different styles and tone colors as good if they are done well and musically; and I realize that many musical styles although not my favorites each have their own purpose, and each find their own appreciative performers and listeners. In other words, it’s all good if it’s done well musically. |
