RE: Lockie Trumpet
I have never heard of that brand. Is this what you're looking for?

Chinese rip-offs of "Gold-plated Austria Schagerl Bb Trumpets" selling on the Internet for $522!
Yep. If it's too good to be true, it probably is.

RE: Symphonic Recording of the Week
The BRSO (Munich) plays "Wiener Philharmoniker Fanfare". Conducted by Christian Thielemann. I have to confess that Thielemann is one of my favorite modern conductors when it comes to brass. I have heard several of his recordings and the brass is just spot on in each recording. He reminds me of Solti in that regard.

Wiener Philharmoniker Fanfare at the Coronation of Charles III
I was more than a little surprised to learn that they performed a variant of the Wiener Philharmoniker Fanfare at the Coronation of Charles III. They even played it in a different key than the original.

RE: For the European Members
@barliman2001 said in For the European Members:
Prague is a hotbed of music of all descriptions. Small jazz bands at every second corner, community bands of all styles everywhere. Language might be a barrier, though.
That sounds like fun! Yeah, I've been studying the language and it's a tough one.

RE: For the European Members
For those of you in Europe, are community bands / orchestras popular? Say, if I live in Prague would there likely be some opportunity to join a community group?
There are some community groups here in the USA, but I get the feeling it's probably more popular in Europe. I wouldn't know firsthand, though.

I recently saw Trombone Shorty and Orleans Avenue in concert at the Tree House Brewery Summer Stage in Deerfield, Massachusetts. Needless to say it was an outstanding performance! Here’s a sample from our vantage point.
Not so short anymore!
