Characterized by a broad and warm sound, yet with a pure and concentrated tone, these instruments can be heard in many of the top orchestras as well as in the majority of important sound recordings. They provide a precise intonation, and a comfortable, balanced response in all registers. The masterfully crafted tubes of the master class represent a highlight in the art of tuba construction.
The 4/4 large 841 is an example of the traditional German rotary valve design, with a long mouth tube and a wide bore. It offers a warm, deep sound, with a wealth of timbres and excellent intonation.
