Advert: Sterling Musical Instruments

Sterling provide Foden's stars with their Virtuoso equipment.

Sterling
 

Sterling Musical Instruments has announced a ground breaking expansion of their musical partnership with North West champions, Foden’s.

Sterling stable

Over the past months many of the band’s leading players have chosen to play on Sterling instruments, including the award winning euphonium duo of Glyn Williams and Mark Bousie, who have joined David Thornton as part of the Sterling stable of world class euphonium performers.

Such has been the remarkable impact of the instruments that other leading players are now making their way to the Sterling factory to try out the bespoke products hot off the state of the art production line.

So impressed

And so impressed have they been that star soprano player Richard Poole will now perform on the Sterling Virtuoso soprano cornet, whilst Lesley Howie has taken delivery of her Sterling Virtuoso tenor horn.

Huge benefit

Sterling founder Paul Riggett told 4BR that the links with such world class players can only be of huge benefit to other players too.

"The quality of the range of Sterling instruments is shown by the decisions made by the players of such a fantastic band. We cannot ask for a better endorsement of our products than for them to be heard in action with the likes of Glyn, Mark, Richard and Lesley – and of course David Thornton."

The players were especially impressed by the service provided by Sterling, the attention to detail and the quality of the product. They also play like a dream tooPaul Riggett

Quality

He added: "The players were especially impressed by the service provided by Sterling, the attention to detail and the quality of the product. They also play like a dream too!"

Paul also revealed that Foden’s have now taken delivery of a full section of Virtuoso tenor horns.

"To hear the instruments played by such a wonderful band is the best advert possible," Paul added. "If it’s the best Foden’s want, then it’s the best any bands should have too!"
