The Colorado Brass
An Ensemble of Brass and Percussion
Our Story
Founded in January 2018, the Colorado Brass is the newest British-style brass band in Colorado. The 30-member volunteer ensemble, under the musical direction of Randall Hoepker, consists of many of Colorado’s top brass and percussion performers. Members come to the brass band as professional musicians, music educators, or students pursuing higher degrees in music performance and education. The founders of the ensemble set out to create a championship level brass band that can compete on national and international stages.
The band has already earned praise by top brass band composers from England, Austria, Belgium, and Netherlands in their performance of world and American premiers of new music for brass band. Our mission statement, to "build a brass band community through education, performances, and competitions”, will cause us to grow further in creating a youth brass band program and inviting the world and nation’s top brass performers to make music with us in Colorado. Keep an eye on the Colorado Brass!
