Info for In Residence

More than 24 nations have joined together in the European Brass Ensemble, which has found its home at the Melk Abbey in Austria. This elite ensemble is waiting to captivate us with its first GENUIN CD, which features world premiere recordings and presents sensational trumpeter James Morrison, also building a wonderful bridge that spans an imaginative program, guaranteed to make brass lovers’ mouths water. From Bernstein to Wagner, Prokofiev to Bizet – after enjoying this CD, we’re left without a doubt that love, passion, and sorrow can’t be better portrayed on stage than by a legion of precious metal…

"The energy and drive are palpable, the precision at times breathtaking, and the control of tempo and dynamics something to marvel at. (...) Undoubtedly the EBE is a crack ensemble, with much to enjoy throughout this CD, and plaudits of course to Thomas Clamor." (MusicWeb International, Des Hutchinson)

"As is consistently true with Genuin, the sound is state-of-the-art: clean, bold, and open, showing off the ensemble’s potent low brass, blazing trumpets, resonant horns, and incisive percussion, but just as effectively revealing the subtle balance and kaleidoscopic color of these outstanding musicians." (Fanfare, Ronald E. Grames)
