Bb Cornet – Geneva Cardinal
£2,595.00 – £3,270.00 inc. VAT
Description
The Geneva Cardinal range is a cumulative result of 24 years research and development bringing together the latest of innovations with the simple aim to produce pure luxury, using the finest of materials, and attention to detail only surpassed by our relentless quest for perfection in sound and intonation.
The venturi, featured on all the Geneva Cardinal lead pipes, is designed to allow the musician to instantly have much more sound, and an almost resistant free experience. This coupled with the ultimate mix of bespoke metals, ergonomic design whilst retaining the hand hammered bell has produced what many believe to be best in class or indeed an artisan with scale instrument range in a class of its own
Our Cardinal instruments are designed for those musicians that require the ultimate reliable professional instrument to ply their trade and any musician who wish to have best in class to reach their true potential.
Evidenced by the growing number of globally recognised virtuosos now choosing to play Geneva Cardinal instruments in the UK, EU, USA, Japan, Australia etc., we strongly believe Geneva’s innovative approach has raised the quality in hand made brass musical instrument production to new levels. But you the customer will be the ultimate deciding factor so book your “Try Before You Buy” and take the test.
Each of the Geneva Cardinal instruments features decorative engraving that is hand crafted by gifted artisans, thus making your Cardinal instrument an absolutely unique work of art lasting a life time.
New Feature is the paddle re-designed in collaboration with Richard Marshall of Black Dyke Band, and the improved ‘Black Nickel Plating’ resulting from a significant investment in the manufacturing production line.
“I choose to play the Geneva Cardinal Cornet for its sound quality and consistency throughout the instruments range. The sound is superb resulting from the exceptional hand craft skills developed since 1842 by the people of Kraslice.”

“The more I play the Geneva Cardinal Cornet, the more I am impressed with the ease of the upper registers and how well the intonation is throughout the instruments range.”

“After what seemed to be a lifetime searching for the perfect instrument that could cope with the amount of airflow I wanted to push, I finally found this in the Cardinal Cornet. As soon as I picked up the Cardinal with its robust frame and Venturi lead pipe I new I had found the elusive match for me. I had previously compromised my upper dynamics and now without compromise I have simply the best cornet ever built”
