The Standard Bearer Of Bach Trumpets Maintains A Legacy
Only the most experienced craftspeople at Bach are allowed to make, assemble, and test Bach Stradivarius instruments. That is only part of the reason that the Bach Stradivarius has earned its reputation as a professional-level trumpet. Another part of the story is that Vincent Bach, founder of the company that still bears his name, was both an engineer and a symphonic musician. Bach brought both his considerable musical and his engineering skills together when creating his high-quality trumpets.
A small measure of his success was that musicians are the ones that prized his brass instruments so much that they began referring to them as equal to a "real Stradivarius." The name soon got attached to Bach's professional brass instruments, and musicians choose them to this day for their excellent intonation, free-blowing bore, and super-smooth piston action.
