The Great Lakes Brass is a poised and polished group of young virtuosi. Praised for its « big, bold knockout sound », « guts, style, humour and dazzling technique », the Great Lakes Brass has a richly diverse repertoire, from Bach to Ellington, as well as specially commissioned works and renegade inventions of Charles Ives.
