Harmonic Brass (eng)
Harmonic Brass was founded in 1991. In 1997 the musicians, who have all studied music at university and have had jobs in different professional German orchestras, decided to dedicate their time, exclusively, to the Harmonic Brass Quintet.
Their repertoire includes classical masterpieces, also well as their own arrangements, compositions and modern music from around the world. The ensemble performs brass music from different styles and eras. Harmonic Brass concerts are accompanied by charming and humorous announcements in between the music by Andreas Binder. He is the french horn player of the group and a most wonderful host. Harmonic Brass takes the audience by the hand and leads them away from their daily sorrows and routines into a world of music and joy.
This outstanding brass ensemble has been setting benchmarks, in terms of powerful yet elegant sound and an extraordinary choice of music, for more than 20 years.
During their career they have been touring all over Europe, Japan, South Korea, the USA, South-America, the Middle-East and the Far-East, Canada, Namibia and South Africa. They have created the musical framework for various events for well known companies such as Siemens, Deutsche Bank, Mercedes Benz and Volkswagen. Harmonic Brass have also recorded 38 different CDs.
With their publishing house & label, BRASS WORKS MUNICH, they offer arrangements and compositions for brass ensembles in different settings (www.brass-works-munich.de). In addition to their concerts, they are well requested as teachers for workshops and clinics all around the globe.
