The Tuckamore Festival is thrilled to announce that one of the most celebrated brass quintets will be joining us in St. John’s on March 12th, 2025.
The American Brass Quintet is internationally recognized as one of the premier chamber music ensembles of our time, celebrated for peerless leadership in the brass world. “The most distinguished” of brass quintets (American Record Guide), ABQ has earned its stellar reputation through its celebrated performances, genre-defining commissioned works, and an ongoing commitment to the education of generations of musicians.
A recipient of Chamber Music America’s highest honor, the Richard J. Bogomolny National Service Award for significant and lasting contributions to the field, the group’s rich history includes performances on five continents, a discography of over sixty recordings, and the premieres of over one hundred fifty contemporary brass works.
Join us for the American Brass Quintet’s Newfoundland debut, featuring the province’s own Hilary Simms, trombone!
