Maritime Brass Quintet in Mahone Bay

Musique Royale welcomes back the fabulous Maritime Brass Quintet for a performance at St James Anglican Church in Mahone Bay on April 8. Their program will run the gamut of works from English songs, to Maritimes inspired music (A Newfoundland Sketch and Anne of Green Gables Medley, with music by Bach including Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring and finishing with some jazz music.

The Maritime Brass Quintet brings the highest calibre chamber music to concert halls, churches, festivals and schools across the Maritimes. The group is comprised of five of Canada’s finest brass players: Curtis Dietz and Richard Simoneau (trumpet), Gina Patterson (horn), Dale Sorensen (trombone) and Bob Nicholson (tuba & bass trombone). Members of the Maritime Brass Quintet have studied throughout North America and performed or held positions with many of Canada’s leading ensembles including the Toronto Symphony Orchestra, l’Orchestre Symphonique de Montréal, National Arts Centre Orchestra, Tafelmusik Baroque Orchestra, and the Canadian Opera Company Orchestra. We are delighted to welcome them to Mahone Bay!
