Making its debut tomorrow in the recital will be this Salvation Army Bandmaster 4v non compensating euphonium;

which I just got back from the repairers, having a 4th. valve stem replaced and protective fob fitted for it.
When I got it (dirt cheap) it was black;

but she now plays very well indeed. It's cicra 1935 and hand built in the St. Albans factory, sold through Judd Street, London.
