Event Description
Musical LandscapesThe Pinnacle Brass Quintet in Concert
On Saturday November 10th at 7:30pm the Pinnacle Brass Quintet returns to St. John the Divine to present an evening of beautiful brass music. Music inspired by the beauty of England, Armenia and Canada will feature prominently, as well as a powerful tribute to our fallen soldiers.
The Pinnacle Brass Quintet was formed in 2009 and is comprised of John Ellis, Matt McCrady, Mike Oswald, Scott MacInnes and Eugene Dowling; musicians from Vancouver Island's important musical institutions including The Victoria Symphony, the Vancouver Island Symphony, the Naden Band of Maritime Forces Pacific, and the University of Victoria School of Music.
This is the first concert of the Pinnacle Brass Quintets third season and their momentum is building. “The greatest thing about a brass quintet concert is the variety of styles, colours and emotions generated during one show,” explains trombonist Scott MacInnes. “One minute you’ll be laughing and the next you’ll be fighting back tears. It’s amazing how live music in a powerful venue such as St. John the Divine can really intensify the experience.”
Admission is by donation, with a suggested donation of $20.
