Delighted

Style and sound

He added: "The Geneva euphonium brings with it style, class and an air of authority, both in looks and sound quality. It has depth, warmth and fullness to the tone whilst being superb at assisting in projection, clarity of production and resonance when required."

Michael concluded: "In summary, the Geneva euphonium will serve and enhance playing for all. It is a fine piece of workmanship that can be used by the developing to the accomplished player — whatever the level. I could say a lot more, but do I really need to…"

Launch

The brand new 'Symphony' Euphonium will be launched at the Spring Festival in Blackpool, so come and take a look why people are moving to Geneva.
