Description

Yamaha YTR-6810S Piccolo Trumpet

The Yamaha YTR-6810S Piccolo Trumpet features a small bore and bell size for superb tonal clarity and projection. It is easy to play, has a beautiful tone, and excellent intonation. They are converted to either Bb or A by changing the leadpipes provided. A fourth valve adds an extended range. Piccolo trumpets are primarily used to play the exciting, yet demanding, 1st trumpet parts in Baroque literature. Remember the Beatles song Penny Lane? It features trumpeter David Mason playing a piccolo trumpet solo. No, he wasn’t playing a 6810S piccolo trumpet, probably a Selmer Paris with an A shank. This solo derived from Bach’s Brandenburgh Concerto number two.
