Sergei Nakariakov - AR Resonance Trumpet

Sergei Nakariakov!!! This is the trumpet I custom built for him, along with a set of new mouthpieces specifically tailored for the different kinds of music he plays, and also a mouthpiece for his beautiful Courtois flugelhorn. I’m so happy and proud to have spent 4 unbelievable days with him testing all sorts of things. Here’s what we came up with: A custom trumpet with a 140mm bronze bell, same shape as the Feroce mode. Very light nickel silver leadpipe. Slightly different layout than usual for an easier and more centered sound, ideal for classical soloists. The whole horn is practically brass free, which is kind of fun considering it’s from the brass family... A new mouthpiece for his Courtois flugelhorn with a longer than usual configuration, extremely deep and V shaped cup, a longer cylindrical section, all in bronze. This mouthpiece keeps the wonderful dark sound he likes while providing a wider harmonic spread for an easier life reaching high notes. Also,
