"The Western Brass Quintet gave unremitting evidence of their individual talents and ensemble training: chords were precisely weighted and registered, instrumental blends were sensitively arranged, and there was rarely a tentatively attacked or released note." -- New York Times Founded in 1966, the Western Brass Quintet is one of the most distinguished brass chamber music ensembles still active in the United States today. The ensemble has performed around the world, including tours of Thailand, China, Sweden, and Germany as well as concerts in prestigious American venues such as the Kennedy Center and Carnegie Hall. The Quintet is a resident faculty ensemble in the School of Music at Western Michigan University. All of the music here was written for or commissioned by Western Brass Quintet.
