What they say

The ultimate professional instrument, the BE928 is trusted by many of the top brass and military bands around the world.

The Sovereign BE928 cornet has been the established benchmark against which all top line cornets are measured. Both amateur and professional players adore this instrument with its rich, open tone, giving every cornet section a singing vibrant sound that makes bands so exciting to listen to. This cornet has a warmth and depth of tone that has become synonymous with the word cornet, yet it has the brilliance and projection to meet all challenges. 

Steps are continually taken to improve its already superior build quality. Always leading the way with research and development, the Besson cornets allow the player to adapt effortlessly between the ever increasing stylistic demands made by our contemporary composers.
