Tomorrow, you'll see another Schagerl review go live--that one might be even more interesting! Stay tuned!

[@RobertCardwell]

Nicely done.

[@SamuelPlaysBrass]

@@RobertCardwell Thank you! Glad I looked here, because YT doesn’t notify me of replied to comments

[@leoalyssaarr1709]

So cool and lucky to be playing this instrument.

[@SamuelPlaysBrass]

I’m thankful I had the opportunity!

[@Gymuntr]

Bro I played that exact same trumpet earlier today at hoffmans

[@SamuelPlaysBrass]

Cool! Yep, seems it made its way back to the shop a couple years later.

[@golf4funjn532]

Great job on this review, Sam! One of the best! You also displayed your talent as a player..Bravo!!

[@SamuelPlaysBrass]

Glad you liked this one! Thank you very much!

[@harrissonball8510]

Yeah man! Great review. Really looking forward to the Killer Queen flugelhorn tomorrow!

[@SamuelPlaysBrass]

Releasing insider information now, are we? 😆 Just jokes, thanks for tuning in man!

[@pebblebeach8517]

Maybe it’s the mic but it doesn’t sound like a quality Bobby Shew trumpet it has a metallic bright sound to it. That said the blazing speed of the rotary valves might be worth it I’ve heard that horn articulates itself to some degree what a beauty.

[@Thetoad738]

Beautiful horn!

[@SamuelPlaysBrass]

Beautiful for sure, but unfortunately this particular one is very temperamental and tricky to play right if you're not used to it--like me! You'll notice fewer and shorter playing clips in this review than of the Schagerl flugelhorn.

🎺Good job 👌

[@SamuelPlaysBrass]

Thanks!

@@SamuelPlaysBrass You are welcome! I liked it. have a good end of the year and have a wonderful new year

maaan , think I'm gonna stole it 😁

[@emperorofgaming8146]

What’s the intro multitrack? Sounds absolutely amazing!!

[@SamuelPlaysBrass]

That tune plays at the beginning of Schagerl TV's videos and I had no idea what it was for the longest time (even after transcribing and recording it) but when I posted it on Instagram a friend of mine commented: "its the Overture to Mnozil Brass's operetta "Das Trojanische Boot". Don't know who exactly composed it but their arrangement can be bought"

[@robbicu]

I think the buttons are made of abalone. It's a type of seashell.

[@SamuelPlaysBrass]

That sounds about right. I think Trent Hamilton has talked about abalone finger buttons.

[@pebblebeach8517]

How do you pull the the valves for a bath ?

[@pebblebeach8517]

It almost looks like it’s easier to play than a standard trumpet. Does it sound better than your Shew ?

[@SamuelPlaysBrass]

Not necessarily better, just a bit different. It’s a more compact, pointed sound, with lots of higher harmonics in the sound. I feel more comfortable in producing a range of tone qualities on the Shew, but that is because I only got to play on the Raweni for a very brief period. Edit: I also got notified about another comment of yours, and yes, the rotary articulation is unfamiliar to me as a piston player but very pleasant, but the sound of the horn is indeed quite bright and narrow. Glad we reached the same conclusion.
