Welcome to a tradition reborn.

My Mission is to resurrect Calicchio. Firstly, Calicchio mouthpieces made off of Domenick’s designs

There are thousands of pages to scan and format to try to get them into legible digital copy. So check back often and if you have any stories, pictures or cool things that would are of historical significance let me know!

Domenick Calicchio 1901 - 1979

This website is homage of everything that was left to me from John Duda after his passing earlier this year. It is the legacy of D. Calicchio Trumpets and E. Williams Trombones and it is important to me and to others that these legacies live on.

I will be putting up information as it becomes available and as I scan documents and add them to the website. John and I were working on mouthpieces together for a few years before his passing, we were just waiting for him to get better before launching them, Sadly that never happened.

The ideas and concepts were to bring designs and ideas of original Calicchio mouthpieces and furthermore his grandson Chris that have never come to market in a standardized Calicchio mouthpiece…Calicchio mouthpieces are hard to come by and even harder to standardize. Luckily, Domenick and later Chris were good at documenting measurements and keeping the original tooling with the company as it traveled all over the country.

Even though not all of the mouthpiece tooling is usable. It can be used to recreate the mouthpieces made with these tools so many years ago. Look forward to these offerings fall of 2021.

If you have an original Calicchio mouthpiece and would be willing to let us measure please email me!
