Quintessence

The American Brass Quintet proudly celebrates its 40th anniversary with the release of American Brass Quintessence. Music of five centuries presented in the same fashion a typical live performance would be programmed for the group – a mixed repertoire-editions of older brass music along side cutting-edge new works. American Brass Quintessence features the best of both!
