Welcome to the new Canadian Brass Series of Collected Quintets. In our work with students we have for some time
been aware of the need for more brass quintet music at easy and intermediate levels of difficulty. We are continually
observing a kind of “Renaissance” in brass music, not only in audience responses to our quintet, but to all brass
music in general. The brass quintet, as a chamber ensemble, seems to have become as standard a chamber com-
bination as a string quartet. That could not have been said twenty-five years ago. Brass quintets are popping up
re — professional quintets, junior and senior high school ensembles, college and university groups, and
amateur quintets of adult players.
We have carefully chosen the itrature for these collected quintets, and closely supervised the arrangements. Ouraimwasto retain a Canadian
Brass flavor to each arrangement, and create attractive repertory designed so that any brass quintet can play it with satisfying results. We've
often remarked to one another that we certainly wish that we'd had quintet arrangements like these when we were students!
Happy playing to you and your quintet.
