Van Laar OIRAM-I

Bb medium-large-bore trumpet · professional · current

The OIRAM is our heaviest trumpet. Thanks to the finely balanced distribution of weight, this instrument is a delight to hold and can be played for a long time without discomfort. As a result of its excellent slotting, the sound can be varied to range from dark and smoky to bright and clear. Due to its universality, the OIRAM can be used in combo playing, in a wind band or as a lead instrument. Like the OIRAM flugelhorn, the OIRAM trumpet was designed by the Belgian architect Mario Garzaniti.
