A Mouthpiece Inspired by a Standard, Reimagined with an Artistic Signature
This AJ Atelier des cuivres mouthpiece was developed in collaboration with Ibrahim Maalouf, a leading figure in the trumpet world. The starting point was an 1 1/2C mouthpiece he previously used. Drawing on his detailed feedback, AJ Atelier des cuivres has created a unique and innovative model designed to meet the needs of a wide range of trumpet players, from daily practice to the stage.Which Trumpet Players and Styles Is It Suited To?
Thanks to its well-balanced profile, this mouthpiece is particularly suited to intermediate to advanced players looking for immediate comfort and a consistent response. It is also a good fit for versatile trumpet players (variety, jazz, contemporary music, brass bands) who want to maintain stability while gaining greater freedom of expression. Its comfort-oriented design also makes it a relevant choice for those who play for long periods and want to preserve their endurance.Tone and Design
The medium cup aims to offer a good balance between warmth and clarity, with an easy response and controlled projection. The wide medium rim provides comfortable support on the lips, which can help stabilize attacks, improve stamina over extended playing sessions and secure transitions. The 17.00 mm inner diameter encourages a sufficiently open feel for musical freedom while maintaining the control required for precise playing.Recommended Compatible Accessories
To maintain the mouthpiece’s performance, a mouthpiece brush and a suitable cleaning product are particularly useful for everyday care. (As compatibility with a dedicated case or specific shank accessories depends on the exact dimensions, please check this according to your trumpet and equipment.)Technical specifications
