2.1.Model description
Giuseppe Verdi asked for a set of trumpets in B and Ab for his opera “Aida”, which was premiered at the opening of the Suez Canal. With their bright and strong sound, they are supposed to celebrate the triumphant entry of the heroes during the AIDA triumphal march
Together with the trumpet group of the Hamburg State Opera, THEIN developed a set of Aida trumpets that meet today’s highest demands on intonation, response and sound characteristics. It also can be found in many opera houses around the world.
In order to be able to use these instruments in a more versatile way, an additional 3-valve trumpet machine was developed. This creates an instrument in C, with a long construction, which can be used excellently for stage music, e.g. as a “Lohengrin” trumpet. This is visually appealing and due to the long construction, the sound is extremely bright.

Suez Canal
Encyclopedia Britannica
Suez Canal, sea-level waterway running north-south across the Isthmus of Suez in Egypt to connect the Mediterranean and the Red seas. The canal separates the African continent from Asia, and it provides the shortest maritime route between Europe and the lands lying around the Indian and western Pacific oceans. It is one of the world’s most heavily used shipping lanes. The canal extends 193 km (120 miles) between Port Said (Būr Saʿīd) in the north and Suez in the south, with dredged approach channels north of Port Said, into the Mediterranean, and south of Suez. The canal does not take the shortest route across the isthmus, which is only 121 km (75 miles). Instead, it utilizes several lakes: from north to south, Lake Manzala (Buḥayrat al-Manzilah), Lake Timsah (Buḥayrat al-Timsāḥ), and the Bitter Lakes—Great Bitter Lake (Al-Buḥayrah al-Murrah al-Kubrā) and Little Bitter Lake (Al-Buḥayrah al-Murrah al-Ṣughrā). The Suez Canal is an open cut, without locks, and, though extensive straight lengths occur, there are eight major bends. To the west of the canal is the low-lying delta of the Nile River, and to the east is the higher, rugged, and arid Sinai Peninsula. Prior to construction of the canal (completed in 1869), the only important settlement was Suez, which in 1859 had 3,000 to 4,000 inhabitants. The rest of the towns along its banks have grown up since, with the possible exception of Al-Qanṭarah.
