1) I really don't believe that the Bach is all that good as a "projecting-type trumpet " as far as ensemble work goes and is a better blender than a leader as far as sound/projecting quality compared to other brands on the market.
2) the Yam. 6310z is a wildly " live " trumpet that , when played correctly,
gets a very resonant, over-tone rich , intense sound, like no other trumpet.The key element is " played correctly "
I have had the pleasure of sitting next to Roger Ingram when he was playing his Yamaha 6310z ( pre Schilke days ) and all you hear is Roger, both coming back at you off his bell and bouncing off the farthest wall reverberating around the theater.
I think thou, Roger himself, has alot to do with that phenomenon.He plays so relaxed and in sync. with himself. He'd sound great on a tin cup attached to a leadpipe. He is definitely the master of the "efficient blow".
