Professional par

Furthermiore, a leading Swiss dealer remarked positively about the workmanship of the new instruments: "Quality-wise they are absolutely on a par with a professional line."

Series

In the new 'Prescience' series York offer a cornet, tenor horn, baritone, 3 and 4 valve euphonium, as well as a Bb and Eb tuba of particularly compact construction.

Suitable

The instruments are of the typical brass band style with pump valves without the compensating system. They have nickel-silver outer slides, the typical York design as well as a high-grade case with backpack carrying system and transport rollers for the larger instruments.

The models are suitable for beginners as well as for experienced musicians. An unbeatable price-quality relation makes these instruments the first choice of many musicians.
