The Canadian Brass Quintet plays in his unique way, famous Broadway musical hits. Enjoy the rich brass sound of horns, trumpets and trombones, played by the masters.

The Canadian Brass is a brass quintet founded by Dr. Charles Daellenbach and Gene Watts in 1970. In addition to maintaining a heavy international touring schedule, the Canadian Brass have recorded over 80 CDs and DVDs. They have commissioned, performed, and recorded hundreds of transcriptions and original works for brass quintet.

Named the "world's leading brass ensemble" by The Washington Post, they perform a wide variety of musical styles, primarily classical and jazz; as a result, they are not considered a "serious" chamber music ensemble; the world's best string quartets, for example, have been able to gain an audience while playing original literature for their combination, rather than transcriptions of classical music's "greatest hits" and arrangements of pop, jazz, and Broadway material. The Canadian Brass (known for their unique performance attire of formal black suits with white athletic shoes) made its American debut at the Kennedy Center in Washington DC in 1975. A significant international visit was made in 1977 when they were sent to mainland China as a cultural exchange between Canada and China. They were among the first Western musicians allowed into China after the Cultural Revolution had subverted Western art music. In 1979 Canadian Brass became the first chamber ensemble to solo the main stage at Carnegie Hall. As The New York Times reported, their sold-out performance "clearly establishes the Canadian Brass as a main-stage production." In addition to their heavy international touring schedule for over 30 years, and their extensive recording catalog, they have been on the Billboard charts in each decade of their existence, recording with the majors RCA, BMG, CBS, Sony, Philips and Decca, occupying virtually all the spots open to brass players. Canadian Brass recordings are currently released by Toronto-based Opening Day Entertainment Group (ODEG), headed by Daellenbach. There is virtually no major concert hall in the world that the Canadian Brass has not played.
