The Slide Trumpet — A Unique Voice in Brass History

The Aurosus A200s is a Bb slide trumpet for beginner and student musicians drawn to the historical slide mechanism that predates the modern valved trumpet. Unlike valved trumpets, the A200s uses a single slide to adjust pitch — offering a unique playing experience that bridges early music, jazz, and experimental ensemble contexts. For students curious about brass history or educators building a diverse instrument collection, the A200s is a distinctive and rewarding instrument to explore.

Key Features

Single Slide Mechanism — Pitch is adjusted by extending and retracting the slide, similar to a trombone; develops slide technique and ear training simultaneously
Yellow Brass Body, 4.75in Bell — Produces a warm, focused Bb tone with good projection for ensemble and solo playing
Clear Lacquer Finish — Durable surface protection with a classic, professional appearance
Standard Bb Pitch — Compatible with standard Bb trumpet mouthpieces and ensemble tuning
