The all-new C190SL229C is the result of a collaboration with Esteban Batallán,
Principal Trumpet of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. This project targeted
the most famous set of Mt. Vernon C trumpet models that Vincent Bach sold
to the Chicago Symphony Orchestra in 1955, specifically the instrument used
by the late Adolph “Bud” Herseth, Principal Trumpet of the Chicago Symphony
Orchestra from 1948 to 2001. All features of this model combine to provide
incredible response, projection, versatility, and the beautiful sound required to
perform in the Chicago Symphony Orchestra.
