Advert: Geneva Instruments

Pride of place goes to Geneva at Royal Albert Hall.

Geneva
 

As sponsors of the National Brass Band Championships of Great Britain, Geneva Musical Instruments will be ensuring that all their existing and potential customers will enjoy pride of place at the Royal Albert Hall this weekend.

Immense impact

The immense impact Geneva has made over the past year has been such that this weekend they proudly sponsor the most prestigious brass band contest in the world — the Championship Section of the National Championships of Great Britain.

Fantastic response

After the fantastic response to their commitment to UK banding at Harrogate a few weeks ago, this is confirmation that Geneva is now the undoubted market leader for brass in the UK and beyond.

So why not come and see why these superb British made instruments are making such a mark on the banding movement.

MD Tim Oldroyd cartianly knows why: "Sound, tuning, build quality, finish... that's why Geneva instruments are so in demand."
