Melton MAB34 MeisterArt Bb Baritone

The MeisterArt models are now a proven innovation from Melton. Developed in close collaboration with professional musicians Berthold Schick (Allgäu6) and Johann Reiter (Anton Bruckner Private University Linz), they shine with their radiant, brilliant high register and their super-low range with a full tone.

In every register, the MAB34 convinces the player with immediate comfort—from the easy response through the impressive sound to the handling. Thanks to the upward-routed 3rd valve slide, water runs down and collects in the main tuning slide. Additionally, the instrument sits comfortably and perfectly balanced in the hand.

The Verdict of Pro Berthold Schick

"Not only does the instrument exactly match my tonal expectations—I have never played a comparable instrument that responds so evenly and balanced across all registers.

In conclusion, I can warmly recommend to every tenor horn and baritone player: If you’re looking for a new instrument, the MAT24 and MAB34 should definitely be among your test instruments. It’s definitely worth it."

Both the tenor horn MAT24 and the baritone MAB34 are surprisingly versatile for any style, including solo work—while both also blend wonderfully into an existing ensemble.
