High Class Brass

Brass Quintet (or Quartet or Trio)

About

High Class Brass is fortunate to to include the fine talents of Steve Winters (trumpet), Tom Swigert (trumpet), Brian White (tuba), Judy Keene (french horn), and group manager Andy Taylor (trombone). Each has a wealth of performance experience. This opportunity to bring chamber music up close and personal has captured our imaginations.

Together, we love to create that unique, small brass ensemble sound that delivers thrills and goosebumps for your audience.

Music

Our repertoire includes: Bach, Beatles, Bernstein, Copland, Dukas, Gabrielli, Gershwin, Grieg, Handel, Haydn, Strauss, McFerrin, Mendelssohn, Mozart, Mussorgsky, Pachelbel, Praetorious, Rimsky-Korsakov, Rossini, Saint-Saens, Wagner and many more.
And we perform pieces made famous by the Canadian Brass and the Muppets.
