Are you saying that Mr. Vacchiano played that C with the New York Phil?

At the Denver Trumpet Symposium in the early 70's Mr. Vacchiano had a N.Y. LB/C.

How many Prin. Trumpet players today play on ML/C's?

None I know of.

Wonderful for solo work, small ensemble playing ala Mr. Schwarz.

Even Ray Mase has two C's. One 229/25H, another 229/Malone (smaller, great control). Both LB.
