Since 1996, Burning River Brass has been dazzling audiences from Alaska to Taiwan with its power and virtuosity, harmonious blend, and consistently stirring performances. Composed of twelve of the finest brass and percussion players in the country, Burning River Brass is an ensemble on fire!

The original inspiration behind Burning River Brass was to give great players who were also good friends a chance to play together on a consistent basis. Soon after the first rehearsal in May 1996, BRB began to grow rapidly. The ensemble made its debut in September of 1996 and by 1998 the group was touring nationally. The camaraderie continues into BRB’s educational and outreach programs, where the players provide students with a rich, positive experience to encourage their enthusiasm for music in the future.

We are pleased to present Burning River Brass in a concert of Christmas music—a touch of tradition, a dash of jazz, and a healthy measure of festive cheer!  Burning River presents Christmas concerts with a little something for everyone. It will be the perfect way to get in the holiday spirit.
