Courtois AC421 Creation New York Trombone Outfit

The CREATION NEW YORK trombone has been developed in collaboration with Weston Sprott of the New York Metropolitan Opera.

This trombone is an evolution of the LEGEND model with many defferent features, such as specific designed leadpipes, venturi and playing slide, different set-up for the assembling points, as well as an ergonomic handrest.

For the first time in Antoine Courtois’ history, this model is equipped with a specially designed bell with a cut screw ring flare, which enables this instrument to be transported in a deluxe flat case, hardly larger than a viola case, making it much more travel friendly. The screw ring on the bell flare also brings a more compact, focused sound with a lot of projection, which Weston Sprott is particularly pleased with.

This trombone is available with a Yellow Brass Bells (AC421BHA-1-0) or a Rose Brass Bell (AC421BHRA-1-0). Orchestral musicians are especially fond of bells in rose brass for their warmer sound and the possibility of broader and more powerful playing required by great works of the classical repertoire.
