With a program that features humor mixed with classical, jazz and Broadway music, their show is fun for the entire family. A review by National Public Radio (NPR) described the Carolina Brass as 鈥渁 high energy, highly competent ensemble that delivers polished brass on the spot with a spark.鈥 The International Trumpet Guild noted, 鈥淭he musicians have an obvious love of this music and are sensitive to balance and to the subtleties of the varied repertoire.鈥 Carolina Brass has released several CDs, including two Christmas collections. One project features Broadway tunes and another showcases the music of award-winning composer Arthur Frackenpohl. The professionally live-streamed event will also be recorded and distributed to high school music classes. The GWU music faculty will provide educational materials along with the video.
