PROGRAM

We wish you a Merry Christmas
Deck the hall
The first novel
O come all ye faithful
Joy to the world
Hark the herajd angels sing
O little town of Bethlehem
What Child is this
Angels we have heard on high
God rest ye merry gentlemen
We three kings
It came upon a midnight clear
Jingle bells
Silent night
White Christmas

BRASS QUINTET:
Trumpets: Davide Casafina, Fabio Trimarco
Horn: Davide Citera
Trombone: Giuseppe Talamo
Bass Trombone: Francesco Parini

From the common passion for timbre, variety and the history of brass instruments, the INSUBRASS project was born, whose name aims to underline the link between the lands of origin of the components (Insubria) and the desire to make the history and the evolution of the repertoire for brass instruments only known to the public (Brass).
