Seraph Brass Quintet
“…delivers music both bright and warm, …when delivered at their skill levels, makes brass music endearing. – Harold Duckett, KnoxTNToday
Performance February 16
“Seraph Brass is the next Boston or Canadian Brass” reported the President of the Gallup Concert Association. “The musical resumes of the members of the Seraph Brass were highly impressive and their performing skills as much. As someone who appreciates diversity of musical styles, an evening with Seraph Brass left me feeling richer, both intellectually and emotionally.” noted the McPherson Sentinel.
