Description

 Yamaha 803S Neo Tenor Horn

“Working together with Sheona White, we analyzed and re-evaluated every part and component to create the Yamaha 803S Neo Tenor Horn that delivers richer resonance and more expressive depth. It produces a graceful tone that enhances the Yamaha Neo Tenor Horn’s presence while delivering the tone colour, volume, resistance, and accurate pitch that brass band performers and soloists demand in an instrument”

Bell
The new Yamaha Neo Tenor Horn features a one-piece yellow brass bell. With a diameter 5mm larger than that of the YAH-602, the new horn’s dynamic range is increased noticeably.

First Branch
The first branch features a newly designed taper improving tone and pitch.

Valve Casing
The Neo Tenor Horn’s valve casing benefits from a new, heavier design. The sound becomes more rich and powerful from the additional weight.

Tuning Slide
Additional improvements to sound, pitch, dynamic range and playability have been achieved with the development of a wider, newly tapered tuning slide.

Key: Eb
Body: Yellow brass
Bell Diameter: 210mm/8 1/4”
Bore Size: 11.9mm/0.469″
Finish: Silver plated
Mouthpiece: AH-38D4
Case: AHC-803 with strap
As a tenor horn player, you strive to produce the warm, vibrant sound that belies the instrument’s character. The hours put into the development of Yamaha Neo’s design allows me to reach the instrument’s full potential, in terms of tone quality, range, as well the heavy technical demands that are asked of brass band players by composers and arrangers.

Above everything else, the Yamaha Neo is an absolute joy to play. I can rely on it to perform every time it comes of out of the case, which allows me to just get on with what I love, making music.
