Yamaha Band & Orchestral Division Rolls Out Updated Accessory Catalog And Website

BUENA PARK, CA (July 15, 2005) — Telling customers about the quality and design of Yamaha Band & Orchestral accessories is good. Showing them is better. Yamaha Corporation of America is committed to the highest quality in the industry with the most effective, consistent products available. Therefore, the Band & Orchestral Division is unveiling its revamped B&O Accessories website and all-new B&O Accessories Catalog.

Accessory Catalog
“Providing the best products is the most important part of our job, but supporting retailers and customers who use our products need more than that,” says Ted Kuehnert, Manager, Accessories, Band & Orchestral Division. “The resources we’re introducing will make it even easier to select, sell, buy and use Yamaha instruments and accessories.”

The new B&O Accessories catalog is more informative and easy to read than its predecessor. In 60 full-color pages, the lifestyle catalog is a complete guide to woodwind and brasswind accessories including mouthpieces, ligatures, caps, headjoints, bocals, cases, mutes, straps, lyres and more; percussion accessories such as stands, cases, covers, mallets, drum keys and drum heads; a complete line of bows, strings, bags and other essentials for the string player; and practice tools like metronomes, tuners and stands.

The catalog highlights the new and improved Yamaha Silent Brass Systems for trumpet, flugelhorn, trombone, French horn, euphonium and tuba players. The redesigned systems are lighter, smaller and more affordable. These systems allow for quiet practicing and easy recording at home, in an apartment or at school.

In its update of the Accessories website, the B&O Division offers more specific information on accessory products, including color photos and in-depth descriptions. With ease of navigation, the refurbished site is useful for everyone: students, parents, band directors, retailers and professional musicians. The site can be reached online by visiting www.yamaha.com/band.
