The Burning River Brass presents a new recording of fresh and dynamic arrangements from Bach and Gibbons to Debussy, Shostakovish, and DiLorenzo. Since 1996, Burning River Brass has been dazzling audiences from Alaska to Taiwan with "power and virtuosity," "harmonious blend," and "consistently stirring performances." Composed of twelve of the finest brass and percussion players in the country, Burning River Brass is an ensemble on fire! The original inspiration behind Burning River Brass was to give great players who were also good friends a chance to play together on a consistent basis. Soon after the first rehearsal in May 1996, BRB began to grow rapidly. The ensemble made it's debut in September of 1996 in Tremont, Ohio under the auspices of Arts Renaissance Tremont and by 1998 was touring nationally. Burning River Brass is consistently applauded for the infectious joy with which it performs. In concert, the ensemble presents a variety of music designed to satisfy the tastes of every audience. BRB's repertoire includes fresh arrangements of classic literature as well as original works written specifically for the group. The camaraderie continues into BRB's educational and outreach programs, where the players provide students with a rich, positive experience to encourage their enthusiasm for music in the future.
