I agree with David Thornton, one of the best -- 10/10!!
Have played for years, always a boosey!

A well rounded tunefull mellow sound, the craft of the instrument gives excellent tone. I am a grade 7 Boosey and Hawkes B-flat player, having played with the The British Police Symphony Orchestra and north Birmingham Orchestra, and would say the Boosey and Hawkes is a great value for money instrument. The best option by far, unless you want to part with several thousand for a Miraphone; see the Miraphone M5050 Ambassodor Compensating Euphonium, so compared up to the one thousand pounds for a Boosey you get excelent tone stability and tuning.
The Boosey and Hawkes Euphonium (I would recomend the Imperial first or Sovereign) is the ideal instrument for the serious non professional and gives the best tune of all the amature brass instruments. I have had the pleasure of playing on several Boosey and Hawkes over the years and have always been impressed by their tunefull sound and note holding. Plus they are one of the industry leaders in the brass world.
Thanks for reading.
