Advert: Sterling Musical Instruments

There will be an incredible Sterling Silver night of legendary euphonium stars and Foden's Band to help celebrate 25 years of Sterling Musical Instruments.

Sterling Instruments
 

Sterling Musical Instruments will be celebrating its 25th anniversary with a special concert featuring Double Champions Foden’s, as well as a host of star Sterling endorsee stars.

Concert

The concert at Bedford Corn Exchange take place on May 19th, with Foden’s providing their special brand of entertainment as well as accompanying some of the greatest euphonium names in the business – all of whom are Sterling players.

Two of the all time ‘greats’ of Trevor Groom and Lyndon Baglin will be joined by Norwegian star Patrick Randefalk, Dutch masters, Robert Voss and Nick Ost and Belgian baritone sensation Stijn Berbe.

Trevor and Lyndon are two legends, whilst the rest of the guys are getting there pretty quickly too – helped of course by playing the Sterling Virtuoso instruments!Paul Riggett

Night to cherish

Sterling founder Paul Riggett told 4BR that the concert will be a night to cherish. "I cannot think of a better way to celebrate 25 years of Sterling service to the banding movement than to enjoy the best band in the world and some of the finest euphonium and baritone players too."

Paul added: "Trevor and Lyndon are two legends, whilst the rest of the guys are getting there pretty quickly too – helped of course by playing the Sterling Virtuoso instruments!"

Its going to be a great night of brass banding entertainment, so please come along and enjoy it – I know I am!”
