I am seriously considering an Antoine Courtois brass instrument. It was a real treat to view this video and to see the care and skill that goes into making these fine instruments. I would love to see a video of the 107 Eb soprano cornet.
So cool--some techniques I have not seen before! Thanks for sharing.
Trumpet Courtois great!
I, owns ACE V3 AC522.
happy to have met a wonderful instrument.
Beautiful
Je possède l'un des derniers trombones basses fabriqué dans l'usine française... Quel magnifique instrument! Dommage que cet usine soit fermée au profit d'une plus grande en Allemagne.
The French know a thing or two about creating a fabulous Flugelhorn, don't they!
Haha that sound at 4:18 is so familiar.
the best part is when they open up the freezer and you can see all the bells inside.
Ah le beau métier !
They know their place :)
Any idea what the music piece at the start of this video is please?
Do you still make Piston Double French Horns?
I would like a qoute Thanks
A fábrica da Weril é ainda mais moderna...
The tubes in this video are filled with soapy water that is frozen. Other instrument makers use pitch, lead or woods metals to bend tubing. Heat is only used to soften the tube prior to filling with a bending substance.
Interesting. I've seen pitch used. Now, question: Why the soap? Why not just plain water?
@@alext9067 Ice cracks because it's not flexible... if you had soap, then it's more flexible therefore easier to bend the tubing
Hello greetings!! Does anyone know how this brand can end up sponsoring a musician ???
Never showed how it's formed into a tube from that flat blank. Is it welded? I guess it is, but how and why not show it?
What is the BBB ending piece? Also, if anyone knows, what was the ensemble that recorded it?
Thanks
Its the soundtrack to the film brassed off
computerdynamo Jerusalem by Parry. Probably the Grimethorpe Colliery Band (?)
Como faço para ganhar ?
I have an euphonium from them...
Hi Courtois instruments lovers!
Maybe somebody has a catalog of Courtois trombone mouthpiecies?I'm interested about "-A.Courtois-Paris-Becquet L-" characteristics.
Hi! I'm probably seeing this too late since you posted it a year ago. The 5L has a cup diameter of 25.6mm (ever so slightly larger than a Bach 5G at 25.5mm) but the throat is 7.05mm (.277") which is the same as a Bach 5G, but the rim on the 5L is slightly flatter if I recall correctly.
@@johnjenkinsmusic1 As they say, better late than never.
Thanks for the info, I still need it.
Are Curtua trombones original instruments, or are they made according to some example?
@@Skirmantasas1 a little of both. Most of their models are inspired by the Bach 42 while one model is inspired by the Conn 88H.
Olá queria muito ganhar um trombone
Dommage d'avoir fermé l' entreprise...
Elle est déménagée en Allemagne... quand les grands fabricants commencent à rationnaliser leurs opérations, ça fait des victimes.
What an odd choice of music for a French company to use as a finish!
Why is that? You know something. What is it?
