Love it! What a unique sound kind of halfway between a fluegelhorn and a trumpet! It is beautiful and in the hands of a master like Steve Dillard, it comes to life with a flourish! Thank you, Steve, for introducing me to this spectacular instrument!
Beautiful tone on this horn. Very nice playing as well. Art Farmer let me hold his flumpet many years ago when he played here. His was more ornate. Intricate figures cut into the metal with seated gems. He was a very nice man and I felt honored to meet him. May he rest in peace.
what beautiful sound. I got to visit Mr. Monette in Portland back in 2009 and I think I saw one of the horns bound for Mr. Marsalis' hands. Thing of beauty. But then what I heard that day on other horns just made me love Monette's works. His mouthpieces are works of art as well.
I’ve listened to millions of great trumpet /flugelhorn/flumpet (Art Farmer) Chet Baker Jack Sheldon to C.T. Also less known players like Kevin Dean,Don Fagerquist, Enrico Rava Guido Basso and lots of your TH-cam videos . The sound you get out of the Flumpet is probably the best sounds to come out of a brass instrument. When are you going to make a CD ???You should get a flumpet in your arsenal
Wow I'm Overwhelmed by your kind words.............. Now I regret that I sold it. It's going to be hard to find oneI can afford. I'm in the planning stages to record a CD Stay tuned to the HornTrader!
Monette or not how could you not love that sound??? Wow! Way outside of what I will allow myself to afford! Great sounding horn played by a skillful and well practiced musician!!! I am guessing no Flumpets will cross my path where I live. How do these play? Is it more trumpet like or more flugel like in how you approach it? What is the blow and sloting like? 5lbs. holy cow!!!

I take lessons from him every chance I get! I joke with him for the price of a large pizza you can learn to play the trumpet you might want to buy :) he blows me away time and time again. The things this man can do with a trumpet is amazing.
What is the second tune you played? Am I alone in thinking a lot of the Monette stuff is a bit on the ugly side? the video and playing (and instrument) is simply marvellous. Thank you very much.
I've never heard a flumpet before. It definitely sounds different from a cornet.... it's more like a trumpet and more like a flugelhorn. But the name makes that obvious, anyway.
Disagree with just about every statement comparing the Flumpet to a flugelhorn. Nice horn, but doesn't sound like a flugelhorn and therefore does not replace it, and doesn't sound as good. It does not make an OK player great. It is easy to play, but does not fit the bill. IMHO.
Monkeysgame I personally like the sound . But it was so heavy. ....... if I would of had a mouthpiece that was close to my diameter I might have never sold it.
Me.horntrader you have a fantastic tone but it's not the tone I prefer I know your not aiming to impress me at all but I just feel a need to say the sound you produce is not my preferred I actually prefer something more like the sound troy Andrews has or Arturo Sandoval
Got that mellow Flugelhorn type sound...cool.
Love it! What a unique sound kind of halfway between a fluegelhorn and a trumpet! It is beautiful and in the hands of a master like Steve Dillard, it comes to life with a flourish! Thank you, Steve, for introducing me to this spectacular instrument!
Thank You for the kind words. I wish I didn't sell it, it was quite a horn.
That Monette Flumpet sound touches my soul. WOW!! BEAUTIFUL!

You're very kind
Thank You!

I'm digging these hybrid horns. Maybe some day composers will write 4 them in symphonic band.

@@hillelsalem4615 Thank You I wish I'd never sold that horn
watched this four years ago. I remembered this from the time i saw it! too bad I would have to make a small fortune to buy it

It was a privilege to hear that. Thank you

Thanks for the compliment. That was a fun horn to demo. I wish I had a mouthpiece that fit that horn.
Best,

CREATED BY DAVID MONETTE AND ART FARMER JAZZ MUSICIAN. ITS SOUND IS MORE MELLOW THAN A TRUMPET.
I want one!
Before watching some of these demo vids I was singing the "shadow of your smile" in my head for about half an hour, spooky.
Buwahahahah
Hey Steve, I looked for that on your site and can't seem to find it. Did you post it yet? What a gorgeous sound!

I first heard Phil Driscoll play the Flumpet at my church in Baton Rouge! Did it sell?
Phil and I studied from the same teacher (Roger P. Fenn) in Tulsa Oklahoma. This horn was sold shortly after this video was made. November 2015
HornTrader- What Mouthpiece did you use on the PUDJE? Interested in buying one.........
thanks
Ceora - nice !
Belo instrumento.
Hello , so this is a kind of flugelhorn?
Is there such a tenor-type hybrid bass trumpet and euphonium?
Well bass trumpet and euphonium already speak in the same key and pretty similar tones so there wouldn’t be a hybrid of the two
You are a great player...what mouthpiece do you use? I have about 200, but lately have been using a De Nicola 21....great piece!
What is the first Song at this video? Thanks, Jan

+HornTrader Marvin Stamm plays an extra low and sensual version that can be heard here on TH-cam, I love it so much.
The Shadows of Your Smile is the name of song
Hello Steve, I LOVE the "buttery" warm sound from gold. Do you think a brushed gold finish has the same warmth as polished gold plating?
I think you would need the ears of a Bat to discern the differences. A lot of butter comes from the MPC

Is there any alternative to that having similar sound ?
The HT3JAZZ piece comes close Check around the 8 minute mark th-cam.com/video/eWYq15SezGA/w-d-xo.html
This puts me in mind of Clifford Brown and Strings.
Brett Weaver Thanks That’s good company to keep :)
You have a wonderful sound, sir. If I may ask, what bands have you played in? I mean, where does your experience come from? Cheers!

Could someone please tell me what the opening tune is?

need to turn up audio when you talk....all your videos. frustrating
Man you "gota" love it! That is an even better sound than a Flugel! Dave is nuttier than a five pound fruit cake but in a good way!
Disagree with just about every statement comparing the Flumpet to a flugelhorn. Nice horn, but doesn't sound like a flugelhorn and therefore does not replace it, and doesn't sound as good. It does not make an OK player great. It is easy to play, but does not fit the bill. IMHO.
Thanks for your Input Johnny. I wish I could of kept the horn gold Plated and all I'd be affraid to take it out in public
Yeah I can't handle gold plating either. Sold my only gold plated instrument - was afraid to touch it.
Surprise:Today Horntrader sounds no more as Horntrader.
Is That good or bad?

此れmonetteの音だな。トランペット本来の音が出せる機種は有るのかな。ヤマハカスタムの方が奏者の音色が出るらしい。
it sounds like a cornet. so, if you want a cornet sound, buy a cornet.
I have to disagree, It doesn't sound like a cornet at all. But what do I know. :)
Im not gonna lie, I don't really like the instrument. It just isnt my taste, but to each their own
Monkeysgame I personally like the sound . But it was so heavy. ....... if I would of had a mouthpiece that was close to my diameter I might have never sold it.
Sorry about you friend, maybe you can change your mind.. This is the most beatiful horn. Perfect sound. Perfect looking.
Me.horntrader you have a fantastic tone but it's not the tone I prefer I know your not aiming to impress me at all but I just feel a need to say the sound you produce is not my preferred I actually prefer something more like the sound troy Andrews has or Arturo Sandoval
It's more the instrument than the musician in this scenario. It's kinda hard to get a brighter tone on an instrument like that
