The Maritime Brass Quintet brings the highest calibre chamber music to concert halls, churches, festivals and schools across the Maritimes. The group is comprised of five of Canada’s finest brass players: Curtis Dietz and Richard Simoneau (trumpet), Gina Patterson (horn), Dale Sorensen (trombone) and Bob Nicholson (tuba & bass trombone).
Maritime Brass Quintet members have studied throughout North America and performed or held positions with many of Canada’s leading ensembles including the Toronto Symphony Orchestra, l’Orchestre Symphonique de Montréal, National Arts Centre Orchestra, Tafelmusik
Baroque Orchestra, and the Canadian Opera Company Orchestra. They also have experience playing in numerous smaller groups and ensembles including Foothills Brass, Northumberland Brass, the Jive Kings and the Canadian Brass.
Since forming in the spring of 2011, the Maritime Brass Quintet have maintained a busy concert schedule and have been featured guests at many of the regions’ well-known concert series and performance venues including the Scotia Festival of Music, the Music Room, Acadia University, University of Prince Edward Island, Université de Moncton, and First Baptist Church, Halifax. They frequently collaborate with some of the region’s finest musicians including Paul Halley and the King’s College Choir, Nick Halley and Capella Regalis, Jeff Joudrey and the Halifax Camerata Singers, and in recital with Mark Duggan at the Scotia
Festival of Music.
Recent performances include concerts with the Musique Royale Concert Series, Music at Three Churches, Mahone Bay, collaborations with King’s Chapel Choir and Capella Regalis, and tours with Debut Atlantic. MBQ can be heard every spring performing at all of the
Convocation ceremonies at Dalhousie University and the University of King’s College.
All MBQ members are dedicated educators as well as players, and are committed to working with brass players of all ages.
