The Besson brand boasts a tradition of making brass instruments dating back to the mid-19th century. During that time it has gained a very respectable reputation among professional musicians and leading soloists. Since 2006 it has been part of the Buffet Crampon group. The instruments are made by skilled craftsmen in Markneukirchen, Germany, a region in the foothills of the Krkonoše Mountains with the neighbouring towns of Klingenthal, Kraslice and Luby, where the tradition of making musical instruments has been maintained for many generations and centuries.
