The light-hearted virtuosi of Canadian Brass have made the brass quintet an exciting vehicle for serious concert music. Dressed in black suits coupled with white athletic shoes, Canadian Brass presents works in the classical repertoire but continues to take daring leaps into jazz, contemporary concert music and popular standards. "The enthralling sound of a brass choir ... virtuosic musicianship, masterful interpretations and flashes of humor ... all of these ingredients make the
Canadian Brass the world's leading brass ensemble," says The Washington Post.
Millions of television viewers have seen the Canadian Brass in such shows as The Tonight Show, The Today Show, and Entertainment Tonight. They have appeared as guest artists on Evening at Pops with John Williams and the Boston Pops, Beverly Sills' Music Around the World, and numerous PBS specials. The quintet has also created eight videos that have gained an international audience and has just released a DVD that captures the group in performance over three decades entitled Three Nights with Canadian Brass.
They have gained a large international following of their solo performances that offer a large variety of musical styles. The "fabulous five" spend most of their time on tour, and have performed with many major symphony orchestras in the US, Canada, Europe and Japan, and have many acclaimed, best-selling recordings available.
