Bressan

The instrument maker, Peter Bressan, who emigrated from France to England, appears to have made only recorders.

This fact explains the extremely high quality he achieved, to be seen on his instruments in museums and collections.

My instruments are based on recorders that are held in the Brüggen- and Bate Collections, and also on instruments to be found in the museum for Preussischer Kulturbesitz in Berlin, and the Museé de la Musique in Paris. All my copies have a full, powerful tone, a light and expressive response and excellent intonation.

Bressan mounted wide ivory rings on most of his instruments. If required I will mount rings of either imitation ivory or fossil mammoth ivory.
