[MusicEvents] Saint Louis Brass in Concert!

[Nancy Melton]

The Department of Music presents the Saint Louis Brass in concert Thursday, Oct. 24 at 7:30 pm in the Finney Concert Hall.  This fun, kid-friendly concert is free and open to all.

Founded in 1964, the Saint Louis Brass Quintet is one of America’s longest standing brass quintets. The group was originally formed by members of the St. Louis Symphony to play children’s concerts around the St. Louis area.  Forty years and more than 3,000 engagements later, the group now performs three concert tours throughout the United States each year, plus recording and international touring.  The SLBQ was featured at the Norway Brass Band Festival in 1994, at a festival in Bombay, India in 1995, and they performed a two-week concert tour in Japan in 1997. In May of 1999 the quintet toured Mexico, and in October of 2001 they toured Germany. June 2003, they toured Sweden.  The SLBQ has produced none recordings and count at least 75 works written for them, many of which have become standards in brass repertoire.
