“The Canadian Brass achieve a blend that’s akin to the dark smoothness of aged Scotch whisky, purring out rounded legato lines in which no breath seems to transpire.”—ClassicsToday.com

As the world’s most famous brass group, Canadian Brass is known for its extraordinary ability to perform many types of music at a preeminent level, exhibiting a full range of musical styles—from trademark Baroque and Dixieland tunes, to Bach and Mozart.
The Canadian Brass consists of trumpeters Joe Burgstaller and Ashley Hall-Tighe, hornist Jeff Nelsen, trombonist Achilles Liarmakopoulos, and Chuck Daellenbach on tuba.
Their Emory program features works from Mozart, Bach, Vivaldi, and Piazzolla, while also celebrating music from the Beatles Songbook. As a special collaboration between the Flora Glenn Candler Concert Series and the Emory Department of Music, select Emory student musicians will perform side-by-side with Canadian Brass for Dectet by Michael Kamen and Jubilate Deo by Giovanni Gabrieli as a double brass quintet.
Emory Student Musicians: Joey Chen, trumpet; Austin Watkinson, trumpet; Noah Choe, horn; Tim Brewer, tenor trombone; Misha Gupta, bass trombone
