- On March 8 - 2012 I drove to Bremen to test the prototype of a complete new THEIN contrabass trombone. Although I am very happy with my recent "Ben van Dijk" model I had the idea there could be made some changes to make the instrument play even easier.
Max Thein and his team took this up seriously and created a complete new model. A long intense day of testing made me very happy.
The new "UNIVERSAL THEIN Contrabass Trombone" is just amazing.
This short video gives you a short impression of this wonderful day! I hope you will enjoy it!
The instrument will be presented during the Frankfurter Musik Messe 2012. - เพลง

god, i would kill to have one of these.
the sound of this great trombone is so beautiful
As a bass trombonist, i would love to play one of these.
What a pleasure to listen to you Maestro van Dijk!
What a magnificent instrument! The sound is absolutely beautiful and majestic in very register and dynamic. The contrabass trombone is an important instrument in e.g. the music of Edgard Varèse, and cannot be replaced by any other instrument (I once heard Intégrales performed with bass tuba as substitute, and the effect was completely wrong!).
Love the tick-tock background music!
thanks for posting this video. i am a big fan of Ben and Thein and together i feel they make the best bass trombone sound anywhere.
Don't forget the fantastic trombone player.
When Ben van Dijk play this trombone, it sounds like a car that really have the power to do anything.
I have found my ringtone.
Ben,in my opinion you are the best bass trombonist.
That is an amazing trombone. I would play that all the time if i could buy it
Beautiful Sound !!!!!! GREAT.!!!!
The contra bone is the god of the low brass section, only appearing occasionally but bringing an awesome experience and sound that is hard to match. I wish i could see and hear more of it
It is a wonderful sound. Wonder how hard it is to play properly. Sounds awesome with Ben playing, but he's a top class professional musician.
@@andrewfielden284Your skill on one trombone will transfer easily to the other. The major obstacle is building the proper air support, a bass or a contra will knock the wind out of you. It also takes some time to be able to produce clarity in the lower register, and also get used to the weight
@@chief2632 Agreed. I transferred from tenor to bass. The breathing for me is the main thing to get used to. I'm having to accept that you can't play the same kind of phrasing on bass, the low register just takes more air.
@@andrewfielden284 Oh yeah it can be easy to sound sloppy below the E below the staff, just takes some adjusting. they're both amazing horns, you can almost feel the rumble when you hear it in person
Always amazing craftsmanship at Thein, and a great pleasure to see it again!
good show man , bravo
Wat een mega vet geluid! Vooral die diepe lage noten
meu sonho de consumo pena que no meu brasil não tem essas belezas
I wish my Miraphone sounded like that... Well I wish I sounded like that period haha
please tell me the song at 2:35 because it's so beatifull...
thanks
+Syafindra Ekaristy Dharma Yes I'd also love to know
+Syafindra Ekaristy Dharma and +Hubert Hoss if you still don't know, it's called Intrada
Wat een ding Wauw hoe heet dat deuntje op het laatst ook van @Ben ?
Where can I get a Thein Contrabass Trombone b/c I've been playing a 56 year old trombone my dad had and I've played it from 5th grade - 12th grade. I've played 3rd trombone parts ever since freshman year and I never could hit many higher notes above the higher G, but I was pretty darn good with the lower notes though, I feel like a contrabass trombone can help me hit the lower notes I that I can't hit on my king Cleveland.
Hi Ben, your new contrabass sounds amazing!
What's the music at the end of your video? It sounds like a piece for brass ensemble- All the best
Phillip
Wow that T-bone is nuts. Not sure what I like better French horns or Trombones
Sweet tone, sir, nice sounds in all registers. Ban the tuba, make them switch to a pure instrument, the contrabass
What is this pitched in/what do the triggers change it to? Thanks!
+Allan Tayor no valves is F 1st valve is D second valve is Bb both together is Ab
Mr van Dijk, I have a technical question; I have a Bach Stradivarius Bass Trombone. My question is "If I find a double slide to fit my trombone thus increasing the total length, will it operate as a contrabass trombone?; I'm aware the overall size of the bell, etc change and my Strad has a 10.5" diameter. I'll appreciate your answer.
nope
FEAR THE BEAST! Now if only Getzen made contrabass trombones...
I want one
No, I'm not a salesman. I've heard of all of these, but with Getzen's Custom Series, that kind of blows away any competition. And it's false that Edwards is better. Getzen and Edwards trombones are put together with the exact same parts by the exact same people with the exact same features. Literally only difference is one says Getzen on the bell and the other says Edwards.
How much does one of those cost b/c i always wanted to have one b/c i wish to play lower notes on trombone and my student trombone can't go any lower and i was wondering if there's a lyre for a contrabass trombone.
Just solder an extra 2 metres of slide on to your tenor. Job done
Like 20,000 dollars
Wear does one purchase such fine specimen
That is correct. But saying "Getzen makes the best trombones in the world" is a far cry from saying Getzens are very similar to Edwards. Which is only true up to a point.
Ive played a Getzen and Edwards Bass Trombones and now own the Getzen 3062AF Custom Series Bass; it plays as well as the Edwards I have tried, uses the same parts, has some (if not all, but they wont tell you) interchangeability with Edwards parts, but costs less and has fewer options to begin with. Besides the name on the horn, these instruments are essentially the same.
How much is it and where can I get it?
What is the song in the background during the middle of the video, not the one at the beginning
Davis Brookshire Intrada, it's the same piece of music.
Getzen makes the highest rated and highest quality trombones.
Olá como faço para ganhar um trombone?
Whats the bame of the first song?
it's called intrada, off of his never alone cd.
The name on the song inn the end?
The song in the background at 2:30
Intrada is what it is called
Where is that store?
Name of the song at the beginning??? Thanks!!
Intrada, 1st track of my solo cd "Never Alone".
Composition by Steven Verhelst!

What were you playing at 2:55-2:56?
Chandler Ellis ivan susanin's aria
But have you played them? I'm serious, dude, Getzen makes great horns, but they're a step down from all of those, including Edwards. Edwards are custom horns, made with different parts (yes, different) usually in a custom way by craftsmen at Edwards, while Getzens are made a factory by different people. They have similar designs, but Edwards are where the good designs come from.
wow! what a tuba!
wat?
Are you a salesman? Getzen makes great horns, no doubt. But "highest rated and highest quality?" Have you heard of Shires? Edwards (made by the same people as Getzen, but better) or Rath? Greenhoe? Thein, even?
How low can this instrument play (pitch)? Anybody know?
+Jack Housman F0 a major third below the piano
+sean mcdonald That's around the bottom of human hearing ability.
Pretty close!
Boa noite
Envia um trombone desse de presente pra mim aqui no Brasil 😊
Must Buy @!
why?
Rath makes the best horns!
How much does that beautiful monster weigh?
the you realize it cost about 17,000 dollars
Steven Esparza be happy you don’t play a string- or woodwind instrument!!
@@BenBasstrombone trueeee
Een pracht instrument.
