Frequently Asked Questions
They’re brighter and more cutting than some other brass models, with a more focused attack – less wash and more direct impact.
While technically an 'orchestral' category, their aggressive sound isn't ideal for most orchestral passages; they're designed for louder, more rhythmic roles.
Regular cleaning with a brass polish will prevent tarnishing and maintain their bright sound; avoid harsh chemicals.
