The Italian Wonderbrass, who have already been dubbed the “World’s Greatest Young Brass Quintet” can now add another quote to their growing reputation “The most ambitious classical arrangement in the history of brass chamber music”.
These extraordinary players all hold principal positions in major European orchestras and exist for the purpose of getting together to make music outside of their regular jobs. (trumpets: Giuliano Sommerhalder, Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, Omar Tomassini, Santa Cecilia in Rome). James Thompson always told me, “it’s not what you do in the orchestra that will always make you happy, it’s what you do outside of it that will lead to a greater measure of satisfaction back at work.”
