Silver ConcertoEvery single one of these instruments is unique and is individually built to order. Covers, comb, mouthpiece, slide button and parts of the slide assembly are all handmade from 925 grade sterling silver. With 1.2 mm the reedplates are considerably thicker than those used on many other models and ensure greater volume. Its solid silver construction gives the Silver Concerto the clear, brilliant sound and the purity of tone demanded by the world's leading classical chromatic virtuosos such as Tommy Reilly, Willy Burger, Yasuo Watani or Sigmund Groven and it continues to justify its reputation as a full concert instrument of the highest possible quality.
Yasuo Watani: "The clear, pure tone of the Silver Concerto has accompanied me on countless concert tours all over the world and continues to fascinate me to this day."
