Geneva is proud to have supported such a brilliant contest day at the Royal Albert Hall

Tim Oldroyd and the trophy
 

As principal sponsors of the 2012 National Brass Band Championships of Great Britain, Geneva Instruments would like to congratulate Foden’s Band and conductor Alan Withington on their superb success at the Royal Albert Hall.

Remarkable

It proved to be a quite remarkable contesting day and one which Geneva Instruments was proud to be so closely associated with.

Geneva's Tim Olydroyd (above) was also thrilled to be able to present the magnificent silver trophy to Foden's as they claimed a historic double triumph.

Visitors

We received countless visitors to our trade stand and we were overwhelmed by the positive remarks and opinions given to us about our world class instruments and for our support of such a truly remarkable event.

We would also like to extend our congratulations to all the bands that took part in the contest and look forward to being associated with the event for many years to come.
