Holiday Brass
Location: Avery Fisher Hall (Directions)
| Sun, Dec 13, 2009, 3:00PM |
The Philharmonic's Principal Brass Quintet and the The West Point Band Brass & Percussion present our annual holiday classic, filled with wit, virtuosity, and the glorious music of the season.
The New York Philharmonic Principal Brass Quintet enjoys worldwide exposure and an international reputation. The Quintet — featuring Principal Trumpet Philip Smith, Associate Principal Trumpet Matthew Muckey, Principal Horn Philip Myers, Principal Trombone Joe Alessi, and Principal Tuba Alan Baer — has hosted an annual Holiday Concert at Lincoln Center since 1995, collaborating most frequently with the Canadian Brass. Other guests have included groups such as The German Brass and the Salvation Army’s New York Staff Band. The Principal Brass Quintet has become a regular encore feature on Philharmonic tours and residencies.
