DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\nFive tremendous brass musicians &mdash\; each a virtuos
 o in his own right &mdash\; form the legendary Canadian Brass. With an int
 ernational reputation as one of the most popular brass ensembles today\, C
 anadian Brass has truly earned the distinction of &ldquo\;the world&rsquo\
 ;s most famous brass group.&rdquo\;\n\nFriends Chuck Daellenbach and Gene 
 Watts first came together in 1970 to form a brass quintet &mdash\; a chamb
 er music setting not entirely new\, but never before having garnered the s
 uccess and storied career Canadian Brass would achieve over the next 40 ye
 ars. Initially\, Gene took on the role of developing new repertoire while 
 Chuck was the moving force in marketing\, publishing and managing the grou
 p. Three empty chairs were quickly filled and together\, the group&rsquo\;
 s imagination and consummate musicianship elevated the art of the brass qu
 intet to what it is today. Here was not only an opportunity to explore the
  possibilities of an all-brass chamber group but a challenge to bring the 
 sound and the excitement of brass music to new audiences.\n\nThe varied Ca
 nadian Brass repertoire features brass standards as well as a wide-ranging
  library of original arrangements created especially for them. These inclu
 de the works of Renaissance and Baroque masters\, Classical works\, marche
 s\, holiday favorites\, ragtime\, Dixieland\, Latin\, jazz\, big band\, Br
 oadway and Christian music as well as popular songs and standards. Having 
 started with a very limited base\, Canadian Brass has created their own mu
 sical world by transcribing\, arranging and commissioning more than 200 wo
 rks\, including critically acclaimed compositions from Michael Kamen\, Lut
 her Henderson\, Bramwell Tovey\, Don Gillis and more. They have transforme
 d a previously neglected group of instruments with a limited repertoire in
 to a versatile and vital ensemble that can play everything from Gabrieli t
 o Gershwin!\nFor more info\, visit Canadian Brass' website
