BUZZ [ b ∧ z ] ◊1 Excitement over novelty. ◊2 Sound produced by vibrating the lips regularly around their equilibrium position. [See vibrate] ◊3 Brass quintet. ◊4 Group consisting of five musicians and one actor. [See musitheatrical show]
The mission of Buzz Brass is to introduce chamber music for brass ensemble to worldwide audiences and most particularly, young people. This is achieved through accessible and entertaining musical shows in which music and theatre are combined in perfect harmony.
Buzz consists of two trumpets, a horn, a trombone, a bass trombone and an actor. The themes of the shows are carefully designed to insure the best interaction between the music and the audience. The actor impersonates all the main characters while the musicians play supporting roles. Because it is performed from memory, the music fits perfectly in the staging of the performance and remains in the forefront. Buzz invites its audience to rediscover music as they have never experienced or even imagined it before! |
