The Chicago Brass Band is a 30-piece brass and percussion ensemble formed in the traditional British brass band. Under the direction of six-time North American Champion Director, Dr. Colin Holman, this group strives to reflect the American culture of which it is part. Each member is an accomplished musician and is selected through individual audition by the Director.
The goal of the Chicago Brass Band is to perform music of the highest quality that is both technically challenging and entertaining for the audience. The group performs music composed specifically for brass bands as well as traditional classical, jazz, modern and American literature arranged for brass band. The wide variety of literature and smaller size of the ensemble, enables the band to perform in a wide variety of settings.
