　　Review By Norlan Bewley:

　　"The Holton B302R euphonium is the same as a Yamaha 321, just made for Holton by Yamaha. This is one of the most popular euphonium horns available, and for good reason: it has excellent pitch, tone, and response throughout the range. The 11 inch bell gives it a focus that projects well with a full, clear sound. I also have a Besson 968, which, of the larger compensating euphoniums, plays the closest to the B302R that I could find. The Holton has a slightly smaller bore than the Besson Euphonium, so it has more of a French Horn quality to the sound, which I like. Both the Holton and Besson are terrific euphoniums! Switching between the non-compensating Holton and the compensating Besson is not a problem, there are just some fingering changes in the low register and a few tuning adjustments in the upper range. A larger mouthpiece on the Holton will go a long way towards getting more of the feel and tone of a larger bore compensating euphonium. It is a very flexible horn and a delight to play! Although often listed as a student horn, in choosing a euphonium, as far as I am concerned it is a first class professional quality instrument."
