The game-changing brass quintet Canadian Brass has performed in virtually every major concert hall in the world, been seen by hundreds of millions of people on television, sold 2 million of their approximately 100 albums worldwide and contributed nearly 600 new works and arrangements to the brass quintet repertoire. In addition to winning the German recording industry’s highest accolade, a Best Classical Album Echo Award in 2000 for Bach: Goldberg Variations; an Italian “Red Rose” Video Award for Home Movies; three Grammy nominations plus a 2000 win for music they commissioned from Peter Schickele that was competing against another nominated Brass album, the Brass have scored a record-setting 15 Juno nominations. They are one of the Canadian government’s go-to ensembles for official state events and have criss-crossed the globe as the brightest ambassadors of the brass repertoire. The first brass ensemble to tour China and the first to play the main stage at Carnegie Hall, they are almost single-handedly responsible for elevating the art of the brass quintet to what it is today.
