Spiri Vario Bb Pro Trumpet

$6,495.00

A trumpet is made of some 130 parts. At the Spiri workshop, not a single detail is left to chance. Spiri and his team members build each element with great care. The joints are soldered in tin or silver, the materials conformed perfectly to wall thickness. Spiri also makes its own silver, gold and lacquer finishings in-house, as this last phase of the work has such a strong effect on the trumpet’s sound. The Spiri craftsmen work the raw brass and pipes into an extraordinary instrument with a pure and heavenly sound: a masterpiece of devotion and precision.

Each Spiri trumpet is custom-made and unique. The player chooses sound and design specifications from a range of materials, elements and finishes. Gold plating gives the trumpet a fuller and mellower sound than a lacquer will. Each combination of wall thickness and bore affects the stability of the sound differently. For a unique design choice, the finger buttons can be inlaid with mother-of-pearl or semi-precious gems of various colours.

Spiri’s Vario trumpet is the only one of its kind in the world. An extensive range of leadpipes, tuning slides and bells offers every possible combination with the perinet valves. The threaded plug connections are high-precision and easy to handle. The instrument can therefore be individually assembled to fit any sound world one may desire.

The quality and precision of Spiri trumpets are the result of many years of work and research. Walter Spiri started to build his own trumpets over 40 years ago. He passed on his immense knowledge of trumepts to his son Werner who, since 1989, has been continuing the Spiri tradition in their workshop and overseeing the music store in Winterthur, Switzerland. In addition, they are also highly respected for the quality provided in the area of repairs and restorations.

Through their close working relationship with a wide variety of professional players, Werner Spiri and his team have expanded the range of the trumpets they produce. This unique Vario trumpet has emerged from this collaboration. Every year Spiri builds a limited edition Vario specially designed for the Music Trade Fair in Frankfurt, Germany. Spiri trumpets are internationally renowned for their unparalleled individuality, precision and sound quality.
