Brassworks Quintet
Gabriel's Trumpets

The Brassworks Quintet has been playing together since 1983, performing a wide range of musical styles including Renaissance, Baroque, Classical, Folk, Pop, Marches, Ragtime, Hot Jazz & Dixieland, Blues, Swing, Rock, Motown, R&B, Latin, Broadway Show Tunes, holiday music and concert works.

With its large classical and popular repertoire, The Quintet is particularly well suited to play for wedding ceremonies (indoors and out), as well as providing background music for the cocktail hour.

The Brassworks Quintet is also a wonderful choice for holiday events, concerts, and parties.

Add a drummer and the Brassworks Quintet becomes The Brassworks Band. The Brassworks Band can be sized up to 8, 10, 12 or more musicians, effectively providing a wide range of dance music for Receptions and Dances. This is a more dynamic presentation for outdoor concerts, holiday entertainment and parties. The Brassworks Band can march in and make a big splash at corporate events, conventions and large parties.

Also available, your very own "Court Trumpeters" – Gabriel's Trumpets!

Versatile enough for any occasion, Gabriel's Trumpets can be as few as one or two Trumpeters, or as many as six or eight. You may choose from a selection of colorful trumpet banners, or commission Brassworks to create custom banners for your event.

The Trumpets sound great outdoors, and fabulous in churches, cathedrals, ballrooms, convention and concert halls. Their well-timed flourishes are perfect for heralding arrivals, announcements, dinner seating and more.

They can perform either by themselves, or with the accompaniment of organ, harp, piano or strings. Switching from herald trumpets to flugelhorns is also an option. This softer side of Gabriel's Trio is especially apropos for quiet prelude, interlude and background music. During the cocktail hour, Gabriel's Flugelhorns can delight with the mellow tones of smooth jazz, ballads and love songs.

"On behalf of the Museum's Board of Directors, I would like to thank you and the Brassworks for your outstanding contribution to our Admiral Farragut Birthday Ball. I have heard nothing but favorable comments about the event, and the beautiful music you provided was a large part of our success. The enthusiasm of the musicians, dance master, and dancers helped to bring about an air of patriotic celebration. We look forward to working with Brassworks again on future events. Once again, many thanks for a wonderful performance!"
