Brass quintet of the German Symphony Orchestra Berlin

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The brass quintet of the German Symphony Orchestra Berlin was founded in 2007 by five musicians from the German Symphony Orchestra Berlin (DSO). The ensemble members share the enthusiasm for chamber music and appreciate the additional challenge in addition to their work as orchestral musicians. In their concert programs they put together original compositions and arrangements from a thematic perspective. The brass quintet consists of two trumpets , horn , trombone and tuba .

The debut concert was given in the year it was founded in the Nordic embassies in Berlin. Further concerts followed u. a. at the Brandenburg Summer Concerts and at the Foreign Office . In addition, the brass quintet of the DSO can look back on several years of collaboration with the Prussian Cultural Heritage Foundation and the Bertelsmann main representative office in Berlin. The ensemble celebrated great success with the Blech Zirkus children's concert , which was developed together with the presenter Christian Schruff as part of the Kulturradio children's concerts series of the Berlin-Brandenburg broadcasting company . Together with the radio choir, the Christmas concert in the Berlin Cathedral opened the door! performed and recorded and broadcast by rbb television and Deutschlandradio Kultur .

The musical design of ceremonies such as the central commemorative event 50 years of building the Wall , 10 years of the Ministry of Culture and the celebration of the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II in the residence of the British Ambassador round off the artistic field of activity of the quintet.

In February 2016, the first CD recording Round Midnight was released on the Capriccio label.
