Cowal Music Club presents The Brassketeers

The Brassketeers are:

Cillian Ó Ceallacháin – Trombone, Lauren Reeve-Rawlings – Horn and Mark O’Keeffe – Trumpet

Between them they have worked with many orchestras, both nationally and internationally. The list of orchestras includes the Philharmonia, Liverpool Philharmonic, the Ulster Orchestra, many of the BBC Orchestras, Budapest Festival Orchestra, Mittelsächsische Philharmonie and the World Orchestra for Peace.

The Brassketeers was formed three years ago as a way for the members to express themselves further as players and chamber musicians. As the group has grown and developed, so has their passion for bringing this unusual, and very seldom heard combination of instruments to a wider audience. Recent projects include working with the education department of Scottish Opera to create an interactive performance for schools, and recitals for Music in Dumfries and Doune and Deanston Music Club.

Their repertoire includes a variety of genres including light music, jazz, baroque, classical and modern including:

Vaclav Nelhybel Trio for Brass

Francis Poulenc Sonata for horn, trumpet and trombone

Edwin McLean Scenes from Storyville

J.S Bach arr. Peter Maunder

French Suite No. 5 in G BWV 816

Anthony Plog Trio for Brass

Jan Koetsier Figaro Metamorphosen

Tickets, priced £12, are available from the Cowal Music Club website or at the door.
