Sheeeeesshhhh, Ed! "Pigtail"?
Since Leigh was so kind to provide this Eclipse "Showstopper", for the Northern Brass Trumpetfest, I would like to have an opportunity to provide a proper name for such a fine instrument. Honestly, the pictures do not do the horn justice... it is absolutely stunning, in person!
USA Eclipse Artist - Trent Austin performed a "solo" called "Joy Spring" by Clifford Brown. I think that "Joy Spring" should be the name of the trumpet, because the bracing actually looks like springs. (And, because it sure didn't sound like some squealin' pig, when Trent was playin'!)
Sound good to you, Leigh? Trent? Noel? (I know that you had a blow on "Joy Spring" before she left the UK. )
Cheers!
