Yet another top cornet star chooses Geneva, as Jimmy Hayes joins the team with the new Symphony cornet.

Geneva Instruments have announced that they have signed up one of Scotland’s finest players ahead of the Scottish Open Championships in Perth this weekend.

Co-operative Funeralcare’s principal cornet Jimmy Hayes is the latest high profile star to join the growing band of performers to play the brilliant Geneva Symphony cornet as their instrument of choice.

And Jimmy will be on hand this weekend to showcase his talents both on and off the contest stage too, as he will be joining the Geneva team on their trade stand at Perth Concert Hall.

Come along

So why not come along and ask Jimmy just why the Geneva Symphony cornet is so good – and why he sounds so good on it too!

Full range

Geneva will also have the full Symphony range of instruments on display, so give Geneva a call on 07947 5333 64 or 01287 651 558 or just pop along and try one out for yourself.

We can’t guarantee you will sound as good as Jimmy Hayes, but you can certainly try with the best cornet money can buy.
