Gerry Birch

Gerry Birch started his career in the music industry in 1969 as an apprentice French Horn Maker with Paxman Musical Instruments. After 14 years making French Horns and repairing every conceivable kind of Brass instrument and a further 5 years as Brass Technician with Bill Lewington Ltd, Gerry began his own business in Norfolk. With Gerry in the 'hands on department' and his partner Jane Prince in charge of the admin, Swaffham Music soon founded itself as a leading Specialist Brass Shop.
