Join in for a Minneapolis Brass in Concert at St. John’s
Minneapolis Brass Ensemble is excited to perform their first dedicated public concert since 2019, “Color Bursts of Spring,” at St. John’s on Saturday, May 13 at 4:00 p.m. Admission is free!
The Minneapolis Brass was formed in 1994 by a number of Twin Cities brass musicians who wanted to play the great literature available to brass instruments. Instrumentation includes four trumpets, four horns, two tenor trombones, bass trombone, euphonium, tuba, and percussion instruments as needed. The group plays a wide variety of literature from Bach to modern day compositions.
Formed by Mark Lammers, who was also the first conductor, the group has also been led by Eric Kodner, Henry Charles Smith, John Zdechlik, and Ron Hasselmann. This year the group re-formed (after the pandemic) under the direction of Seth Davis from the University of Minnesota. St. John’s is their primary rehearsal venue and they occasionally provide music during worship.
