Education

 

    In addition to their busy performance schedule, each member of the MBQ has a passion for teaching young musicians. MBQ conducts several school-based workshops, camps, master classes, and concerts each year. The Monumental Brass Quintet is currently on the artist rosters for Washington Performing Arts Society Concerts in the Schools and Living Arts Pennsylvania, enabling the group to perform for thousands of school-aged children each year. The MBQ has three educational programs available for grades pre-K through twelve that touch on many cross-cultural, historical, and even scientific disciplines in addition to great music. In June of 2012 the Monumental Brass Quintet celebrated the ten year anniversary of the MBQ Summer Brass Institute, a week-long program for young musicians in grades five through twelve. Members of the Monumental Brass Quintet are active as private instructors, adjudicators, and coaches.
