Downeast Brass Holiday Concert
December 12, 2015, 7:00 PM
Free
The Downeast Brass has performed in many New England settings. Audiences have been impressed by these fine Maine performers on the concert stage, at weddings, festivals, and on parade. They have performed at private parties at the Governor's mansion in Augusta, Maine, at the Mount Washington Hotel in Bretton Woods, New Hampshire, the famous Moxie Parade, and Governor Baldacci's inauguration ceremony, among many other appearances. Their wide range of musical styles makes them the preferred musical choice for many occasions.
The Downeast Brass's founder and arranger, Dwight Tibbetts, has kept the unique talents and skills of his colleagues in mind as he has arranged music specifically for the group. From Andy Forster's pristine high trumpet tones to Mark Mumme's full bass sonority, from Mike Peterson's trombone to D. Loren Fields's french horn, the quintet combines the skills of some of Maine's premier musicians. Since they are also music educators, they seek to reach audiences of all ages with original and entertaining programming.
Free admission; donations encouraged.
