The Birth of Bagpipes and Brass
The Denver Brass is born of and shaped by the community it serves. Performance and programming decisions are driven by a philosophy of enriching lives and communities through music which stirs the soul and celebrates our culture and humanity. Using a broad array of tones and styles, and collaborating with unusual guest artists, The Denver Brass explores new frontiers in search of exhilarating and memorable sounds. One spring, The Denver Brass staff sat with a calendar looking for a new adventure. Their eyes landed on St Patrick’s Day. “Aha,” thought Kathy, “a holiday we haven’t explored. It will have to be brass and... bagpipes?” She took her concert idea to the Artistic Committee. After a very long discussion, the committee finally agreed, saying “It surely could not injure us... and it will certainly be loud.”
