P. Mauriat professional saxophones will also be on display. ‘The craftsmanship that goes into each instrument by P. Mauriat is second to none, due to the extensive hand-hammering process and each tone hole is drawn from the saxophone one by one to ensure the precision and consistency required for excellent response and intonation.,’ says UK distributor JHS.
Odyssey designer and Master Craftsman Peter Pollard will be on hand to demonstrate and go through the features of these instruments.
