Play with expression

Whether you're new to the trumpet or you're an experienced student player, tone is crucial. B&S has created a trumpet that will allow you to perfect the best tone with materials that are also used in premium instruments. For instance, the rose brass material used for the leadpipe adds another layer to the tone, resulting in a nuanced, sophisticated sound. You've also got a handmade yellow brass bell, which produces a versatile sound, meaning the Prodige Trumpet is ideal for beginners and intermediate players who will be turning their hand to lots of different genres in the early stages of their brass career.

Play with greater musical expression. To complement the tone of the Prodige, B&S has opted for a reverse leadpipe, which gives players more freedom in terms of the sound they produce. A reverse leadpipe fits into the tuning slide, so there's no narrowing of the tube. This means there's less resistance, so the player has more control over pitch and intonation. This feature is great for student trumpet players who want to experiment with different playing styles and find their own voice.

Quality materials

With a clear lacquer finish, the Prodige Trumpet will look stunning in any jazz band, wind band or orchestra. But beyond looks, clear lacquer also gives the trumpet a durable finish. The monel valves are a durable, high-quality option too. Monel is a nickel and copper alloy that is used in the majority of professional brass instruments. This is because monel valves are dense and more resistant to corrosion. Just from the Prodige's exterior, you can tell that B&S has chosen the most stunning materials, which make this trumpet long-lasting.
