Over her successful playing career, Sheona White has probably done more to popularise the Tenor Horn than any other exponent. Now, the BBC Radio 2 Young Musician of the Year 1996 has her sights set on a potentially longer-lasting legacy. Her partnership with Yamaha has resulted in a radical re-think of horn design. Every facet of the instrument has been considered, revised and refined to perfection. And you'll hear the difference. New levels of power and projection combine with a warmth and depth that will send repercussions through the brass community and bring horn players to their rightful place at the heart of the band.
Features
First Branch Taper
The first branch features a new design that offers improved pitch and greater tone colour. The main tuning slide is designed with a new taper and wider bow that produces greater tone colour, a freer feel, more accurate pitch, and greater dynamic range.
Valve Casing
The YAH-803's valve casing benefits from a new, heavier design. The sound becomes more rich and powerful from the additional weight.
Mouthpiece Receiver & Brace
The mouthpiece receiver and brace design produces a moderate amount of resistance and thicker sound when playing, delivering greater projection and expressiveness.
Case
Hard case AHC-803 with strap.
