Program Notes

Friends Chuck Daellenbach and Gene Watts first formed the Canadian Brass in 1970, and the group has achieved tremendous popular and critical success over the past 40 years. They may be the world’s most famous brass ensemble and legendary recording group.

In their 1991 album Red, White & Brass, the Canadian Brass included some of America’s greatest musical treasures from the 1800s. This medley of the same name features American Patrol, Home on the Range You’re a Grand Old Flag, Yankee Doodle Boy, Simple Gifts, and Stars and Stripes Forever.
