One of the roles of Schreiber & Keilwerth, as member of the Boosey & Hawkes Group, was the production of components for Besson Brass instruments which were then assembled in England. Besson stopped assembling instruments in England in 2005. Schreiber & Keilwerth has decided to resume production of world-class brass, this time with manufacture and assembly under one roof, using the name York, a renowned trademark from the past. York Brass uses many of the same components responsible for the Besson Sound but production methods have been improved and quality control is extremely high. If traditional beauty is what you are after in a brass instrument , you owe it to yourself to try York Brass - an ideal synthesis of German accuracy and the legendary British Brass Sound.
