About

What happens when the illustrious brass sections of the Berlin and Vienna Philharmonic come together? The answer = The Philharmonic Brass. Making its debut in Vienna’s Musikverein in April 2023, the group will come together for recording, tours and education work. Comprising some of the best-known faces in the brass world from Berlin, Vienna and their friends, the group includes Sarah Willis, horn and Paul Halwax, tuba. Now it’s time for the follow-up album through the new label Supreme Classics: Italiana!

Conducted by Maestro Riccardo Muti, it includes virtuoso arrangements of some of the best-known music including Verdi’s Sinfonia from Nabucco, Rossini’s Guillaume Tell Overture and many more.

‘I am thrilled to share my excitement about this unique musical experience. Although I have long admired bands, which typically include both brass and woodwinds, this ensemble is composed solely of brass instruments, and it has been a revelation for me. The musicians, some of the finest in Europe, have brought a fresh perspective to the music I usually conduct with a full orchestra, including strings and woodwinds. This collaboration has not only brought me immense joy but has also enriched my experience as a musician. The result is a performance of exceptional quality, enhanced by the camaraderie and shared passion for music-making. We are on a mission to create something truly special.’ – Riccardo Muti
