Brownstone Brass is an NYC-based brass quintet looking to push the boundaries of what a traditional brass quintet looks and sounds like. Made up of professional freelancing brass musicians including married trumpeters Caitlin Featherstone and Oscar Wiley Thorp, multi-faceted trombonist Colin Babcock, and “Tuba Queen” Heather Ewer – all BKCM faculty members – as well as horn player Ser Konvalin, this ensemble has a passion for classic brass quintet repertoire, original arrangements and compositions, new music and more. It’s all about having fun while rehearsing and performing in a positive and encouraging environment while spreading their love and passion for music.
