692 Trumpet Lidl 1920s G
thetubameister: This is not in G, but C or Bb tubaron: This looks alot like the G trumpet I was loaned in college by neighboring University of Iowa, to play Sibelius Symphony No 2 in D minor. Of course, nearly 40 years might cloud the picture (as well as the music citation) a little. Unfortunately, I had too little exposure to it to train the embouchure and get the ear to adjust, so I ended up transposing the music for my Bb. gsmonks: You are right- its a C trumpet. The original modern "trumpet" was of this type, and first appeared in the 1880s in Europe in A, Bb and C. It would be nice if we could be the ones to nail down the exact date. Same goes for the Perinet version. No one yet has nailed down the exact date/first maker. One item of note- notice that the difference between these A, Bb and C horns and the Perinet varieties is that these horns go straight from the mouthpiece into cylindrical tubing and do not have a conical lead-pipe. I am not sure what the percentage is, but with a 5 ft instrument, 6 1/2" to 7 1/2" of conical lead-pipe is the difference between rotary and Perinet A, Bb and C "trumpets".
