BORAPELLI C TRUMPET

Not all C trumpets have to sound alike.

The Borapelli was designed for players looking for something beyond the bright, compact sound often associated with traditional C trumpets. Its voice is rich, warm, and remarkably resonant, with an almost cornet-like character that fills the room effortlessly while maintaining exceptional projection.

At the heart of the instrument is a unique two-piece bell, combining a phosphor bronze stem with a nickel silver flare. This uncommon combination creates a sound that is both broad and colourful, allowing the instrument to project beautifully without ever becoming aggressive.

The gold brass soldered leadpipe offers a comfortable resistance and outstanding flexibility, while the ovate nickel silver tuning slide contributes to the instrument's stability, response, and distinctive tonal character.

Visually, the Borapelli stands apart as well. The absence of a long bell gives it a compact, elegant appearance that immediately catches the eye. Its perfectly balanced design makes it feel effortless in the hands, while our signature hand-hammered brace adds both character and craftsmanship.

The result is a C trumpet that feels familiar, yet sounds entirely its own.

Borapelli — warmth, projection, balance, and personality.
