The Sovereign baritone remains the most popular baritone in Besson’s long history and having benefited from several small improvements in recent years, we believe this three-valve compensating instrument will remain the mainstay of the baritone sections of brass bands for years to come. Each instrument is play-tested and checked at the factory by a renowned professional soloist for sound, response and finish.
