Geneva look to Van Looy to help conquer Belgium market

Geneva Instruments hope to make further inroads into the European marketplace with the help of their latest Symphony performer, Glenn Van Looy.

Geneva
 

Geneva Instruments will be hoping to make further inroads into the European market place by attending the Belgian National Championships in Heist-op-den-Berg this weekend.

Reputation

With their stable of international artists growing as quickly as its reputation for producing great brass instruments, it will give the players and performers at the premier brass band event in the country the opportunity to find out for themselves why Geneva is fast becoming the automatic choice for the world’s finest brass players.

Informed choice

And to help them make an informed choice about the Geneva range, local hero and international euphonium star Glenn van Looy will be at the trade stand on Saturday and Sunday to demonstrate just how good the ‘Symphony’ euphonium is.

Glenn will be joined by Geneva's founder Tim Oldroyd and European Sales Director John Hudson.

Of course, with the news that Glenn now endorses our instrument being released last week, it is an ideal time for us to be in his home countryCraig Buchan, Geneva Instruments

Rapid take up

Craig Buchan, Managing Director of Geneva Instruments told 4BR: “The rapid take up of our instruments in the wider European market means that John is spending more time in Germany, Holland and now Belgium.

Of course, with the news that Glenn now endorses our instrument being released last week, it is an ideal time for us to be in his home country."
