Scottish Brass will perform in St Mary’s Church, Haddington, on Saturday 16 May at 7.30 p.m.

A recently formed ten-piece ensemble, Scottish Brass is a collective of young Scottish-based freelance brass players from both classical and jazz backgrounds. Included in their repertoire are imaginative arrangements of symphonic and operatic works as well as original compositions, old and new, creating a diverse and eclectic sound.

Scottish Brass aims to promote brass chamber music of the highest quality for audiences across Scotland and further afield. The ensemble considers it important to bring new works to audiences young and old and consequently wish to encourage new compositions for brass ensemble from contemporary composers.

The programme will include works by Hazell, Bizet, Piazzolla and Gabrielli.
