Acclaimed quintet Onyx Brass recently celebrated its 30th Anniversary and continues to be the leading force in the promotion of the brass quintet as a medium for serious chamber music, combining staggering virtuosity (Sarah Walker, BBC Radio 3) with the illuminating and articulate style that has become the groups trademark.
Onyx has toured extensively: there are very few corners of the UK that remain unvisited! The group has also performed regularly at festivals and concert halls in the USA, Ireland, France, Sweden, Germany, Portugal, Switzerland, Nigeria, Bermuda and Borneo to unanimous critical acclaim.
The group's extensive discography has received huge critical acclaim; Gramophone hail " some of the most thrilling chamber brass-playing of its kind " and Record Review (R3) describing the group as a " wonderful, virtuosic brass quintet".
The programme ranges from Monteverdi's Vespers , Rameau and Bach to Shostakovich, Arnold and Bernstein's West Side Story Suite.
