BACH STRADIVARIUS GREAT NAMES IN MUSIC BACH STRADIVARIUS… THE SOUND CHOICE OF PROFESSIONALS VINCENT BACH COMBINED HIS UNIQUE TALENTS AS BOTH A MUSICIAN AND AN ENGINEER – INSTRUMENTS WHICH Born Vincent TODAY REMAIN THE SOUND CHOICE OF ARTISTS WORLDWIDE. Schrotenbach in Vienna in 1890, he initially received training on the violin, then switched to the trumpet when he heard its majestic sound. Although Vincent also displayed a strong aptitude for science and graduated from the Maschinenbauschule with an engineering degree, he gave up a promising engineering career to pursue his first love and an uncertain future as a musician. The risk paid off. Performing under the stage name of Vincent Bach, he established musical success as he toured throughout Europe. World War I forced Vincent’s move to New York City where he arrived with only $5.00 in his pockets. A letter to the famous conductor Karl Muck got Vincent an audition and a resulting position with the Boston Symphony.

While on tour in Pittsburgh, Vincent was convinced by a repairman who said that he could improve the mouthpiece on Vincent’s trumpet. After the man ruined the mouthpiece, Vincent had great difficulty finding a suitable replacement. This was the beginning of Vincent’s realization of the very real need for high-quality mouthpieces. His discovery was further substantiated when, during the World War, Vincent served as sergeant and bandmaster of the 306th Army Field Artillery Band at Camp Union, Long Island. As head of the bugle school, Vincent found both mouthpieces and instruments to be of inferior quality.

In 1918, while performing part-time at the Rivoli Theater, Bach invested $300 for a foot-operated lathe and an office at 11 East 14th Street to begin the business of producing mouthpieces. The business grew rapidly and, in 1924, the first Bach trumpets were manufactured. Musicians frequently referred to a Bach trumpet as “a real ‘Stradivarius’ of a trumpet,” thus inspiring the brand name Bach Stradivarius. Bach trombones followed in 1928. At the age of 71 in 1961, Bach decided to sell his company. Although he received twelve other offers, including some that were higher, Vincent chose to Bach trombones are available in sell to The Selmer Company. His close relationship with Selmer three handsomely hand-engraved bell patterns- anniversary, over the years convinced Vincent that this was the company standard, and deluxe (pictured left to right). that would preserve the Bach tradition of excellence and expand upon the foundations he built. All tooling and machinery was moved from Mount Vernon, New York to Selmer’s operations in Elkhart, Indiana, with Vincent assisting in the training. True to Vincent’s vision, The Selmer Company still painstakingly follows Bach’s original designs and blueprints to manufacture Bach Stradivarius instruments, the sound choice of professionals.

As the bore size changes so does the bell design. The shape of the tapered surface, or rate of flare, determines the characteristic sound of the instrument. Slow tapers yield bright tones, while fast tapers produce dark, warm sounds. Smaller bore trombones, having bells with slower rates of taper, produce a brighter jazz sound. Larger bore trombones, having bells with faster rates of taper, yield darker symphonic tone qualities. construction, allowing for unrestricted vibration of the bell. In addition to the shape of the bell flare (rate of taper), the type and thickness of the bell material also affect the sound. Gold brass, softer and more red than the Yellow brass is standard (pictured left). Gold brass (pictured right), softer and more red due to a higher copper content, results in a warm sound. Sterling Plus (99.9% pure silver, pictured center) offers a focused sound with projection. standard yellow brass due to a higher copper content (85% as opposed to 70%), results in a warm tone. Sterling Plus® bells (99.9% The shape of the tapered surface, or rate of bell flare, determines the characteristic sound of the instrument. Bells with fast tapers (solid line) produce dark, warm sounds. Slow tapers (dotted line) yield a bright sound. pure silver, seamless construction) create a full compliment of partials (overtones) in the tonal spectrum for a focused sound with great projection. For situations involving dark qualities or high dynamic levels without distortion, choose BELLS a heavyweight bell (in either yellow or gold brass).

Some Bach offers several mouthpipe options. Removable and musicians prefer the feel and quick response of the light- interchangeable mouthpipes for 42 series large bore tenor weight slide. The weight has been reduced by using nickel trombones: standard – balanced resistance, focused sound; silver tubing for outer slides. In addition to the light weight, standard length/open venturi – less resistance, more flexible; nickel silver tubing also resists corrosion. All Bach long length/open venturi – very free blowing. Removable Stradivarius trombones not having an “LT” prefix feature and interchangeable mouthpipes for Bach bass trombones: regular weight slides made from brass tubing for outer slides. standard – balanced resistance, focused sound; short All models can be special ordered with lightweight nickel length/open venturi – less resistance, more flexible; silver outer slides. Bach 42 series trombones can be customized mouthpiece holder only – most free blowing. with narrow handslides for playing comfort. The gooseneck, a section of pipe located immediately after the handslide section, serves as a “choke” to further balance the blowing resistance. The model LT16M features a more open gooseneck (i.e., less constriction), creating less resistance and more flexibility. The optional open gooseneck for the 42 series tenor trombones also results in a more open instrument.

Bach ® trombones with traditional rotor valve sections offer a choice of either open or traditional wrap. Open wrapping of the rotor section places fewer and larger bends in the tubing, resulting in less blowing resistance. Traditional wrapping provides compactness and protection. Traditional rotor sections can also be made from gold brass tubing. T H A Y E R ™ V A LV E S The top two pictures highlight traditional rotor valves. Open wrapping of the rotor section (pictured top) places fewer and larger bends in the tubing, resulting in less blowing resistance. Traditional wrapping (pictured second from top) offers the advantages of compactness and protection. Both the Balanced Valve® (pictured second from bottom) and Thayer™ Valve (pictured bottom) allow for a free and unimpeded flow of the air column combined with open wrapping. B A L A N C E D V A LV E ® S Y S T E M Combined with a gold brass bell, gold brass rotor section tubing creates a dark, warm sounding instrument. Balanced Valve® and Thayer™ Valve systems eliminate sharp crook tube bends within the rotor itself. Combined with open wrap section tubing, both the Balanced Valve® and Thayer™ Valve allow for a free and unimpeded flow of the air column, regardless of whether the B of F sides of the trombone are being used.
