Players expressed again and again their desire for the Rhenus to combine the great intonation and incredible response of a Galileo with the wonderfully colored sound that goes to the core of established vintage models. It should be a modern classic, not another boring colorless mainstream trumpet.
Right from the start we at Galileo knew this was a big challenge. Each component was critically examined. The components passing our demanding trials and tests have been selected incorporating designs and inspirations from many influences and were integrated as harmoniously as possible.
It’s no secret that with a great trumpet, not only the components but the overall concept is of crucial importance. It was developed, tweaked, measured, and tested until the result elicited a broad grin from everyone involved. Since this is a completely new model and not just a facelift, we had to give it a new name. Rhenus - Latin for the Rhine – naturally provided the ideal symbolism. Basel is a city on the Rhine, bisected by the great river that rises in Switzerland and is a connecting element to the heart of Europe, sometimes dynamically bubbling, sometimes majestically flowing, constantly in motion.
