Yamaha YTL-110 Trova Casual Wind Instrument

Available from Gear4Music at €58.80.

The Yamaha YTL-110 Trova Casual Wind Instrument is a child-friendly pre-trumpet designed for early brass exploration. Created to help children experience the joy of brass playing it uses the same lip-reed principle as a standard trumpet - just buzz your lips and play. With no valves or fingerings to learn young players can focus purely on making sound and enjoying their first musical steps.Its branched pipe system produces natural harmonic notes similar to a real trumpet giving a more authentic brass character than you might expect. At around 0.18 kg the lightweight aluminium body is easy to hold and the centre of gravity sits close to the player for better balance. Thick-walled tubing adds durability while the cylindrical design keeps the instrument compact. Its also quieter than a standard trumpet (and the removable bell reduces volume further) making it suitable for home practice. When its time to clean simply rinse the interior with water - straightforward and practical for busy families.
