The Trompette Courtois TOMA, developed in collaboration with Ibrahim Maalouf, is a revolutionary trumpet designed to capture Maalouf's unique musical signature. Featuring 4 pistons allowing for quarter-tone playing, we have chosen to offer this trumpet in a lacquered finish. The Trompette Courtois TOMA is primarily aimed at musicians aspiring to play with the authenticity of Ibrahim Maalouf's trumpet, while exploring his distinctive repertoire and musical universe.

Designed as a versatile study trumpet, this instrument is perfect for musicians eager to explore a wide range of musical repertoires, from classical to contemporary music, jazz, as well as oriental, Indian, African, and Eastern European music, which use scales and harmonies different from those traditionally taught in conservatories. It possesses a rich and expressive sound, capable of producing soft and mesmerizing melodies or intriguing and percussive dissonances. Microtonality adds a unique depth and complexity to the music, creating a captivating auditory experience.
