Sonus Brass is the realization of a desire to bring together the artistic talents of five brass players from different areas of the United States. Formed in 1987, the groups five members have worked with founder Alan Cox in various settings, ranging from the university of Southern Mississippi to the Sewanee Summer Music Festival. Sonus is a unique ensemble in that the geographical separation of its members is no impediment to musical and artistic success. They have numerous international performances to their credit, including three Asian and two South American tours. They were residents at the First Pan American Brass Symposium in Venezuela, the 1990 Taipei Brass Workshop, and the 1992 Taiching Taiwan Brass Workshop. In 1992 they released the CD Sonus Brass Captured. (Thurs., May 20, 1 p.m.) |
