The ever popular Besson Sovereign 950 Eb tenor horn is the classic model that has been the most impressive horn design for generations. It has been a mainstay of horn manufacturing for decades with its characteristic tubing configuration that gives you both tone and response in equal measure.

This model has evolved as a result of the collaboration of highly skilled specialists, both technical and musical, all contributing their knowledge and artistry. The choice of the Prestige or Sovereign horns is a choice of the musician must make based on what tonal colours they prefer and how the air flows through the instrument.
