OREGON PUBLIC BROADCASTING PRODUCES AN EXCELLENT TV SEGMENT ON OUR SHOP

Episode 917: Thursday January 24, 2008

Monette Trumpets

"In a workshop tucked away near the Portland airport, everyone plays the trumpet. They also make the trumpets. And many knowledgeable players consider them to be the best sounding horns in the world. But wait till you see the way some of them look! Lets visit the trumpet manufacturing company of David Monette and see how they do it."

The OPB (Oregon Public Broadcasting) TV show “Oregon Art Beat” recently did a segment on our shop and Dave Monette’s work, and they did a great job with it! The segment features trumpet and mouthpiece production video, with lots of coverage of the delivery of the ELYSIAN TRUMPET. The crew came out to film Irvin’s concert at our shop last August, and they also followed Dave to Portland Goldsmith Tami Dean’s studio to shoot the two of them working together.

Thanks to OPB producer Jessica Martin for a great job!
