Denis Wick: a historic brand serving brass players
Founded by Denis Wick, a musician of the London Symphony Orchestra, the British brand was born from a very concrete need: to provide accessories capable of optimizing response and projection in large halls. In nearly 50 years, Denis Wick has established itself as a worldwide reference for brass accessories, with manufacturing entrusted to skilled craftsmen, and above all a simple philosophy: to offer the right mute for every musician and every situation (concert, rehearsal, travel, apartment).
For what use and which musicians?
This silent mute is intended for all trombonists, from the beginner who needs to multiply playing hours without constraints, to the professional who wants to maintain embouchure and flexibility on tour. It is particularly suitable for contexts where volume must remain very low: practicing in an apartment, dressing room, hotel room, discreet warm-up backstage, or individual rehearsals. Whatever the style (classical, brass band, jazz, pop), it allows maintaining a stable technique and regular practice.
Sound and design
Designed for practice, this mute primarily aims for strong volume attenuation. It helps maintain setup (attack, legato, rhythmic precision) and work on stability of tone production at low volume levels. Its aluminum construction provides a solid and durable base, while the polyester cover contributes to comfort of use and protection during handling. As with any silent mute, the feeling of resistance may differ from open playing: it is an excellent support for consistency, endurance, and breath control discipline.
Recommended compatible accessories
If you often transport your trombone, a cover or case with an accessory compartment is recommended to protect the mute and avoid shocks. A microfiber cloth can also be useful to wipe the aluminum after use and keep the accessory clean over time.

We play the trombone without disturbing the people in the room next door, but the expulsion of the air is very restricted.
