About

As contemporaries in the European Union Youth Orchestra, each of the Group’s members have now begun to build impressive reputations at the start of what looks set to be five very illustrious careers. After successfully recording a CD in 2008, Barbican Brass performed at numerous recitals around the UK in 2009 including Appleby Music Festival, Ackworth Concert Society and Music in Mayfair.



Also in 2009, the Group performed for the Metropolitan Police at New Scotland Yard, provided music for the National Lottery’s 15th Anniversary celebrations and were featured as cover artists in the October edition of Muso Magazine. In March 2010, Barbican Brass performed on Norwegian Radio from the Winter Chamber Music Festival in Roros and have recently given performances, classes and talks at both Southampton University and the University of Surrey as part of the Guildford International Festival.


Actively keen on promoting new works, the Group commissioned Andrew Brinsford’s ‘Quintet’ in 2009 and an arrangement of Olympic Fanfare by Evan Jolly. In 2011 Barbican Brass featured in the 'Made In Chelsea' Christmas Special at Skinners' Hall in London. Aired on E4 on 22nd December 2011, the Group provided some Christmas Carols to get everyone in the Christmas spirit! Following the London 2012 Olympic Games, Barbican Brass were delighted to play aboard a special Eurostar service returning the Belgian Olympic athletes and officials to Brussels. 


In Concert Barbican Brass have extensive experience of performing recitals at the highest level of musicianship which are also entertaining for the audience. Over several years as both colleagues and good friends they have developed a wonderful rapport which aims to integrate audiences into performances. Recently Barbican Brass have performed recitals for Appleby Music Festival, Ackworth Concert Society and Music in Mayfair as well as performances, classes and talks at both Southampton University and the University of Surrey as part of the Guildford International Festival. 



Barbican Brass can perform for any event; your very own Royal Wedding, a ceremonial fanfare or simply as light background music.
