How do you feel about the Wessex French tuba leadpipe angle? I would like it to be a little more open because after playing for a while I feel some discomfort in my right hand. I was wondering if it...
I had also made one on the Courtois 165 that I played before buying the prestige.

The hand rest on my Besson prestige is positioned perfectly for me, and I made a similar one that I had placed on the '73 New Standard that I use in march services, also very useful as a carrying...

Of course your new standard '68 satin silver with bell interior and gold details + custom trigger is truly a beauty!
Survey: have you made any changes to your instruments compared to the original state?
I'm curious to know how many of you have made changes once you purchased your instrument, both aesthetically and...

I have been taking fish oil capsules daily for over twenty years (5g per day). The diet in Western countries is very unbalanced regarding the omega 6/omega 3 ratio, which can lead to inflammation and...
The best instrument I've ever had is the one I'm playing now. In my long (only because I'm a little advanced in years) life as a self-taught amateur musician (I only had a brief education at the age...
The slide of the 3rd valve is very long in almost all euphoniums, perhaps due to the fact that, in ancient times, the length of the 3rd valve was 2 tones, while it was later standardized to 1 and a...
Look at minute 6:35 of the video: it's just an example of Misa's skill in performing an operation that could have been potentially dangerous, furthermore the trigger on the Besson euphoniums is, in...
Sure, I do it during the breaks or in the interval between one song and another. It doesn't take much more time than using keys, they empty better and you don't dirty the instrument. For example,...
I don't like water keys. Personally I would eliminate them. In 17 years I don't think I've ever used the 1st and 3rd slide water keys on my Besson Prestige, I prefer to pull the slides to empty them....
No change in the intonation which, on the sample in my possession, is particularly good, practically having no low note and only all the Gs (treble clef) from the fundamental up to the 6th passing...
Hi everyone. Last week I did a thorough cleaning of my 2007 Besson Prestige 2052 (a lot of green crap came out, I need to do this more often) and I took the opportunity to freshen up the gold plating...
Has anyone heard or tried Chinese euphoniums of this brand? Yesterday I had the opportunity to try this professional euphonium made in China which seemed interesting. This Chinese factory offers good...
I have the plating work done by a nearby workshop, which I have been turning to for a few years and so we have become friends. For a gold plating of slides and caps the cost does not exceed €50, an...
You can customize your euphonium by having some removable parts such as caps, finger keys, water keys, slides as well as the mouthpiece plated with various precious metals such as gold (yellow, rose,...

Hi Guido, happy new year to you too. I played with the WB Demondrae, my friend with the Schilke 52D. Unfortunately here in Italy there are no events like ITEC where there is the possibility of trying...
I found an R3 and an R3S on sale for €65. the one, but they don't inspire me. The seller says he doesn't like these mouthpieces, I won't take the step, also because the diameter of the circle is too...
Hi John, sorry to interfere but, speaking of the Warburton Demondrae mouthpiece that I have had for a few months, I must say that I like it a lot and I have used it in the last end-of-year concerts...
Hello everyone and happy new year for a 2024 full of satisfactions. Yesterday I accompanied my friend Stefano with whon I play in various bands to a couple of musical instrument shops, the largest...
The simplest way is to take the part written in the bass clef for Eb instruments and read it as if it were in the treble clef (adding 2 sharps to the key) with the same fingering you use for Bb...
