Savor the sounds of the season as Empire Brass, one of the world’s finest brass ensembles, performs yuletide favorites, classical masterpieces, and traditional carols in this special holiday program. Renowned for their spirited showmanship as well as their brilliant musicianship, Empire Brass performs bright, dynamic arrangements from a repertoire that spans centuries and cultures. The five musicians—all of whom have held leading positions with major American orchestras—perform over 100 concerts a year around the globe. With their best-selling recordings, they have introduced a worldwide audience to the excitement of brass music ranging from Bach and Handel to jazz and Broadway, and while each note resonates deeply with listeners, their glorious music soars.

“Lavishly endowed in technique and musicianship. Individually and collectively they proved brilliantly virtuosic, with lips of steel and willing, musical spirit.” –Los Angeles Times
