CANADIAN BRASS
Classic-Jazz-Pop-Contemporary …and more
Award Winning and Internationally Acclaimed

Friday, September 24, 2010 – 8:00 pm
Pre-Concert Chat – 7:30 pm
Academy Theatre for Performing Arts, Lindsay

The Fabulous Five: Chuck Daellenback, Keith Dyrda, Jeff Nelsen, Brandon Ridenour and Chris Coletti.

The Canadian Brass sprang from modest and highly experimental roots in Toronto in 1970. With daring leaps from classic to jazz to pop and rock music, after 40 years they are more popular than ever. The sheer joy they have for the music and find in playing together is instantly transmitted to the audience. Their need to mix the serious and the irreverent is best symbolized by their signature black suits and… white running shoes. They just can’t perform enough encores... A Shear Delight!

Program will include works by Frescobaldi, Monteverdi, Bach, Tovey, Louis Armstrong,
Paganini, Lennon and McCartney and Schickele
