Monumental Brass Quintet (The Kennedy Center)

Monumental Brass Quintet

Winners of the 1996 Baltimore Chamber Award and the Rafael Mendez Brass Quintet Competition, Monumental Brass Quintet (MBQ) performs an amazingly versatile repertoire that spans the centuries. The ensemble is equally at home performing all styles of classical music, both early and contemporary, as well as dixieland jazz, ragtime, movie music, show tunes, and big band favorites. MBQ has two recordings: Monumental Favorites and a CD of Christmas music. They appear on both radio and television in the eastern United States. Special appearances by the Monumental Brass include the Kennedy Center's annual Salute to The Presidential Scholars in the Arts; the 100th Birthday celebration of the National Zoo in Washington, D.
