Widely considered one of the world’s preeminent chamber music ensembles, the American Brass Quintet is hailed for its burnished sound, brilliant virtuosity, and the musical acuity of its performances.  The American Record Guide has described the group “of all the brass quintets, the most distinguished,” a distinction borne of acclaimed performances, commissions that have broadened and deepened the brass ensemble repertoire and that of contemporary music, and commitment to the education of generations of musicians.  Founded in 1960, the American Brass Quintet has performed on five continents, made nearly 60 recordings, and premiered more than 150 contemporary works for brass.    READ MORE
