top of the range baritone in the world of brass bands. It's
even response and clarity in a variety of articulations is

matchless tuning throughout its range. It's been seen the
choice of leading baritone virtuosi and top band players.
It's the sound conductors want to hear from the right side
of a brass band, capable of the most thrilling fortissimos
and whispering pianissimos. A compensating horn, the BE955

BE955 baritone has an easy response and valve action, making
