Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Schilke’s S23HD is a Bb, large-bore trumpet aimed at symphonic work. The .463-inch bore, yellow brass bell and leadpipe, and medium-throat #3-taper bell are paired with a broad, rich voice and strong intonation. Its sound is described as controlled and powerful, with enough projection for quiet passages as well as concert-hall playing. Monel valves, a first-valve thumb saddle, and a fixed third-valve ring round out the playing layout; a custom single hard case is included.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Symphonic players seeking a large-bore Bb trumpet for concert-hall repertoire.
- Performances requiring controlled projection from soft passages through fuller ensemble writing.
