4BR Quiz:

There is another great prize up for grabs in our latest 4BR Quiz...

4BR has teamed up with our friends at Woodwind & Brass to offer a great prize to any aspiring cornet player.

Just the job

Answer the quiz question correctly and you could get their hands on Walstein/Bauhaus hard shell cornet case – just the job to look the part the next time you saunter into the bandroom.

It’s sturdy and protective, carries four mutes in comfort and ensure your expensive cornet doesn’t get bashed about by an irate bus driver throwing it into the back of the bus after a contest…
