Instrument details
The Prestige euphonium is the culmination of years of experience and listening to the best players in the world. It truly is the ultimate euphonium in the brass world today,
combining a strikingly beautiful appearance with new state-of-the-art features which has meant the best has just got better.
This new model will ensure the Prestige euphonium its place in history as the world leader in euphonium design.
New valve technology means you'll not experience better than the Prestige; superbly smooth and rapid action. The eye-catching gold plating features make these instruments a sumptuous visual treat.
Players will adore the sound, the control over all aspects of tuning (with the famous trigger feature as standard) and the playing comfort that the Prestige offers. The meticulous attention to detail and craftsmanship with the new instruments is admired by players everywhere.
The BE2052 is the same model as BE2051 with a larger bell diameter (12").
The sheer number of tonal possibilities is immense with you the performer always in control. The 2051 with its slightly smaller bell produces a beautiful sound that takes a little less air to fill, and its compact sound has won it many devotees. The bell size is the only difference between the 2051 and 2052 but at Besson we like to offer the performer choice, so you can find the Prestige euphonium that is just perfect for you. The powerful pedal tones and centred yet clear high tones mark the extremes of this remarkable instrument’s capabilities, yet it is the range of expressive tone in the medium register which is perhaps its most endearing characteristic.
If wanting a lacquer finish, this is a special order only.
