Metales M5 is Mexico’s leading brass quintet.

Metales M5 Mexican Brass unites classical and world music, contemporary repertoire and pops arrangements in programs that range through the brass literature and beyond.  These five young musicians break the barriers of musical genres as they take the Blues to the Opera and Bach to the roads of Michoacán. Metales M5 is fresh, funny, entertaining!

"M5 is the best thing to come out of Mexico since tequila! Their sense of style, showmanship, and virtuosity is a rare treat not to be missed."
Martin Hackelman, Principal Horn, National Symphony Orchestra, former member Canadian Brass, Empire Brass

Riders in the Sky
Friday, March 30, 2012 — matinee
visit website: http://ridersinthesky.com/

For thirty years Riders In The Sky have been keepers of the flame passed on by the Sons of the Pioneers, Gene Autry and Roy Rogers, reviving and revitalizing the genre. And while remaining true to the integrity of Western music, they have themselves become modern-day icons by branding the genre with their own legendary wacky humor and way-out Western wit, and all along encouraging buckaroos and buckarettes to live life "The Cowboy Way!" Riders In The Sky are exceptional not just in the sense that their music is of superlative standards (they are the ONLY exclusively Western artist to have won a Grammy, and Riders have won two), but by the fact that their accomplishments are an exception to the rule as well.

1st Brigade Band

The band MAKES HISTORY LIVE by presenting period brass band music, performed on antique instruments. Attired in uniforms and gowns, the Band's musicians, color guard, and costumed ladies take you back to the 1860's; to that turbulent era known as the Civil War.

A nostalgic portrayal of the atmosphere of days gone by is generated by a unique form of showmanship that blends the sights and sounds of the period with historical anecdotes.

Watch and listen, from 2009 Lincoln Bicentennial:
