Hello everyone,
My question is how important the bore size is on a euphonium. (below is context)
----
I am in the process of buying a new euphonium and narrowed it down to the Adams E1 and the Geneva Symphonie.
Although I like the Symphonie more than the E1, my Music teacher(who is also an Instrument builder) is recommending me to be wary of the Symphonie because of its small bore of 14.7mm, compared to the 15/16mm of the E1.
I'm coming from a Jupiter JEP-570 with a bore of 14.5mm.
As far as I know and what he told me is that although a wider bore is more tirering, the lung and the player is trained and conditioned to play louder and broader.
I am a young player (16.5 years old)
and am finishing school 0.5 years and am hoping to study physics in Heidelberg(I'm German), so I'm looking for advice if I should even buy and what to buy.
----
I'm hoping to get some advice on the importance of bore in this thread, as there doesn't seem to be a lot of infomation on the internet about the topic in both the english and german forums I know of.
Thank you for reading through all that!!!
