The American Brass Quintet is pleased to announce our newest members, Brandon Ridenour and Hillary Simms. An exciting rejuvenation for ABQ, both were our students earlier in their lives and are keen to further ABQ's mission and commitment to cutting edge chamber music. 

Hillary was just featured in the NY Times in an interview by Javier Hernåndez on being the first female in ABQ as well as breaking the gender barrier in the brass world. You can read the article here.
