Chestnut Brass Company presents "American Voices"
Sat, September 12, 2009, 8:00 PM
Ordway McKnight Theatre
The Grammy Award-Winning Chestnut Brass Company explores the beauty of American music, past and present. With a museum quality collection of brass instruments, they draw you in with music from the earliest decades of the New Republic, including rare "back-firing" horns played by troops in the Civil War. The journey continues into the 20th & 21st centuries with the soulful simplicity of American folk songs, the energetic syncopation of Broadway & American popular tunes, and the excitement of new music written especially for the Chestnut Brass Company. Spend an evening with this quintet and you will never think of brass instruments in the same way again!
