  Geneva offers its congratulations on the success of their partner bands on the weekend.

Geneva Instruments have told 4BR of their delight after a weekend of success for their partner bands at two major events.

British Open

"Our congratulations go to Brighouse & Rastrick (runner-up), Co-operative Funeralcare (8th) and Rothwell Temperance (10th) — a trio of excellent results at the British Open, the most famous brass band contest in the world."

Dr Martin

In addition there was further success for Co-operative Funeralcare (winner) and Reg Vardy (runner-up) at the Doctor Martin Wainstone's Cup contest at Yarm School near Stockton on Tees.

Reg Vardy's fine solo trombone player Andy Enzor won the 'Best Soloist' prize whilst Co-operative Funeralcare also took home with them the prize for 'Best March'.

The spokesperson added: "It was a great weekend for Co-operative Funeralcare and also another fine result for Reg Vardy Band. It shows that many of the best bands in the world now choose to perform on Geneva instruments — and the results prove it."
