Dear Mara and hornlist,
Yes, the Canadian Brass played last night (May 22nd) at a church in
Birmingham, MI. I was there and it was a fabulous concert! Bernard
Scully may not have been in the publicity pictures (I noticed that too)
but he was very much in his place at the concert last night. The
I have a cassette copy of the LP - this performance was not reissued on cd,
unless it occurs on their recent CBC reissue. See their web store for more
info.

Hi,
I have a recording of the Canadian Brass (Graham Page,
horn) playing the Malcolm Arnold.
The recording is on vinyl, "A Touch Of Brass," MMG
Records, CBC series, MMG 1123.
I have a ton of classical music on vinyl (at least it
seems like a ton after moving them across the country

Probably the leader in original works for brass quintet is the
American Brass Quintet, described by Newsweek as "The high priests
of brass" a number of years ago. Definitely a bit more esoteric

And no, they don't do many original commissions, although the
Canadians have commisioned an "opera" [Hornsmoke], the Michael Kamen
Quintet, and have recorded the Malcolm Arnold Quintet.
Anyone know where to get a copy of the Arnold recording? I have
always been under the impression that they d

The Montreal Brass Quintet and the Modern Brass Quintet were responsible
for a LOT of original works. Lew Waldeck told me that his quintet's books

both groups have certainly mined the transcription bit for all its worth, I

Actually the Empire Brass postdated the Canadians by almost ten years.
However, both groups have become the predominantly known quintets and certainly
do well at exploring the whole realm of the repetoire between them. I have a

If you go to "canadianbrass.com" they have a page devoted to the time line of
the members in the group. There is a lag sometimes in different parts of the
site as to who is in the group - pictures tend to be displayed in the gallery

Hello Kendall,
Please give my congratulations to Bernhard. Persistance and talent really
pay off in the long run, don't they?
All the best,

Seems to me The Canadian Brass wears out & replaces their horn players more
frequently than their trumpet players, trombone players, & tuba players.

I'm sure I speak for many horn players out
there...when I say that Jeff Nelsen will be greatly
missed.
I have had the good fortune to study with Jeff for the
last 10 months and I'll assure you that there isn't a
finer horn player or human being in the performing
world.
Jeff will be missed!

We just heard the Canadian Brass, with their current horn player who we
thought played very, very, well, last Friday night at the Bergen Performing
Arts Center. What happened?
