Wagner Tuba Hire

Wagner Tubas

Professional and amateur orchestras alike only occasionally need to employ a set of Wagner tubas. The present price of a full set of Alexander instruments is over £12000 so it makes sense to hire them when needed. Although it is possible to hire them from certain orchestras who have their own set, the instruments are often in use and so are not always available.

We have a matched set of four compensating F/Bb instruments by King, which are in superb condition with excellent intonation. If your orchestra is planning to perform any of the works listed we can provide the instruments (and advice) to help make your venture a success.

Please contact Mike for further information.
