About the repair shop
Work in the repair shop stems from a passion for all brass instruments and a desire to see them brought back to life. They can arrive in a forlorn state and emerge looking - and most importantly sounding re-vitalised. In an era where 'repair, re-use, recycle' resonates with all of us, this is the perfect way to feel good about resurrecting those old treasures. Re- energise your playing! Re-energise your instruments.
