Advert: Geneva Instruments

Two fantastic new instruments are ready to hit the UK — and just in time to make sure you can get your hands on them for Christmas.

Geneva Instruments
 

Geneva Instruments has announced two brand new additions to their acclaimed Symphony range.

Soprano and flugel

The Symphony Eb soprano cornet and Symphony flugel horn are due to be unveiled December after months of work on the designs on these two superb new models.

Impact

A spokesperson told 4BR: "Geneva Instruments are excited by the impact the new additions will certainly have on the brass band market.

Both instruments are designed for the specific needs of the brass band musician and built to the highest standards of craftsmanship with attention to detail and with an exceptional balance of tone, intonation, playability, durability and aesthetics."

Try them out

They added: "The two new additions to the Symphony range will shortly be reaching the UK and if you would like to be one of the first to try the outstanding new Symphony Eb Soprano cornet or Bb flugel horn please contact your nearest area manager (available for band room visits) or contact the Geneva Instruments Head Office for more details."
