  East Midlands Music will now showcase all levels and brands of Geneva Group instruments

Geneva Group has announced that a new leading retailer has joined in partnership with them.

East Midlands Music started as a small independent musical instrument repair company that has since grown into one of the most respected mail order spares, accessories and now, instrument retailers in the UK.

Relaxing experience

Company Director Dan Smith told 4BR: "In early October we picked the keys up to our new business premises, a beautifully converted farm building set in the heart of the British countryside between Peterborough and Northampton.

With plenty of space to create a relaxing experience customers can enjoy a coffee overlooking the countryside and browse all of the instruments and accessories at their leisure."

Proud showcase

He added: "We are now proud to be able to showcase such diversity from Geneva Group — from student instruments right up to professional level instruments that will cater for every player's needs.

Geneva Instruments feature prominently in our large showroom dedicated to brass instruments of all kinds as well as Amati, V.F. Cerveny and Holton to name but a few."

Geneva Group CEO Tim Oldroyd told 4BR: "We are thrilled that yet another major retailer has joined with us to provide its customers with the opportunity of experiencing the full range of Geneva Group instruments.

This shows that Geneva continues to build a huge foundation based on product excellence and quality to our customers."
