Capital City Brass quintet to play Sunday
This Sunday, March 3 at Trinity Episcopal Church in Apalachicola, the Capital City Brass Quintet will perform a selection of classical chamber pieces and popular tunes.
The quintet consists of graduate students at the Florida State University College of Music, many of whom are teaching assistants. Playing trumpet are Benjamin Dubbert and Madison Barton. On French Horn is Cory Kirby, Jonah Zimmerman plays trombone and Chris Bloom is on yuba.
The Capital City Brass Quintet is dedicated to fostering music education for young musicians and has recently returned from a tour in Costa Rica.
Each musician performs in the top FSU School of Music large ensembles and the quintet has made it their mission to inspire and foster an interest in brass chamber music. The members’ dedication shows through in their amazing performances and Trinity Church, with its wonderful acoustics, is the perfect venue for these inspired musicians. The quintet has performed at many events and likes to spotlight new, engaging music by diverse and underrepresented composers. Tickets are available for the 4 p.m. show in advance through Eventbrite at inconcertapalchicola.org for $20, and at the door for $25. Students are admitted free.
