In recent years the blurring of established parameters of classical music have been labled "crossover"... but this phenomenon has existed for centuries. During their lifetimes the music of Handel, Mozart and Verdi, to name a few, was the 'popular' music of common folk as well as the 'serious' music of aristocracy and royalty. There is high quality music in all genres, and BRASS ROOTS TRIO presents that in colorful programming with unexpected twists and turns!

"American Impressions"
A lively program that captures vignettes of the many cultures of America with music ranging from Aaron Copland's "Rodeo" to Billy Joel's "Root Beer Rag." Brass Roots Trio brings to life memories of the Mississippi River boats and the musical legends they carried from New Orleans, the southern gospel revivals, and the haunting beauty of Appalachian melodies. "American Impressions" is a heartwarming program that will stir the emotions!
"Brass Roots Trio put on an amazing performance. Their musicianship, technique and phrasing were incredible. They have fun playing together, and the audience could tell this. Concerts like this should not be missed!"
