The Romanian Brass chamber group was
formed by the elite of the brass wind instrumentalists of the Symphonic
Orchestra of the George Enescu Philharmonic. The initiator of this
ambitious project was Adrian Petrescu, prime oboist of the Bucharest
Philharmonic and a musician with an impressive national and
international career.
The unique composition of the group, the
enthusiasm of the interpreters and their professional competence and
passion were some reasons for explaining the great success registered
with the first concerts of the group.
Their repertoire, constantly enriched,
covers reference scores of pre-Classical, Classical, Romantic and
contemporary music as well as Sacred and Entertainment music. Romanian
Brass often plays works by Bach, Handel, Vivaldi, Gabrielli, Pergolesi,
Mozart, Beethoven, Berlioz, Bizet, Tchaikovsky, Verdi, Strauss, Wagner,
Bruckner, Elgar, Ravel, Gershwin, Enescu, Hazzel, Parker, Brubeck, J.van
der Roost, Copland and D. Dediu.
Under the baton of conductor Adrian
Petrescu, the brass wind instrumentalists of Romanian Brass pay homage
to the great music of all époques and recorded in 2007 their first
compact disc by the name of "Solemn Entry".
