A Glimpse into History: The Voice of Kings and Commanders
Long, straight trumpets, often called buisines in the Middle Ages, were an indispensable instrument of power and communication. As they lacked the valves of modern instruments, they were not used to play complex melodies. Their purpose was to produce loud, piercing, and far-reaching tones and fanfares. Their sound announced the arrival of a sovereign, opened knightly tournaments, and conveyed simple but crucial commands in the heat of battle. The ownership and use of such an instrument was a privilege of the nobility, armies, and important cities, making the buisine a clear symbol of authority and status.
Construction and Care of the Trumpet
This trumpet is made for easy handling and a long life. It consists of three interlocking parts: the mouthpiece section, the middle section, and the bell. Assembly and disassembly are a matter of seconds.
How to Care for the Trumpet:
To keep your brass trumpet maintaining its dazzling shine, give it a little care. Brass has a natural tendency to darken and develop a patina over time. If you wish to restore its original lustre, use a soft cloth and a suitable brass cleaner or polish. Avoid using harsh abrasive materials that could scratch the surface. For storage, it is ideal to disassemble the trumpet and keep it in a dry place.
