Members of the University of Louisville Cardinal Marching Band were pleasantly surprised this week to be presented with a very generous donation of 30 B&S trumpets. The benefactors are Dr. Mark and Cindy Lynn, who are known patrons of the arts and athletic programs at the University of Louisville where their son is the Assistant Director of Marching Bands and Instructor of Trumpet.
These 30 B&S Challenger I Bb trumpets have outfitted the entire trumpet section of the Cardinal Marching Band and were unveiled to the students on Monday, October 20, 2014 as a complete surprise. “From the minute ‘go,’ the difference in sound has been dramatic – bigger, more cohesive sounds. The students have also noticed that it is much easier to blend and play in tune together on their new B&S trumpets,” says trumpet instructor, Dr. Mark Lynn.
B&S is the manufacturer of handmade brass instruments including trumpets, cornets, flugelhorns, trombones, and tubas. With over 250 years of experience in making traditional musical instruments in Markneukirchen, Germany alongside a faithful cooperation with outstanding performing artists, B&S has a great passion for instrument making in accord with the highest quality of craftsmanship.
