Led by Artistic Director, tubist Charlie Schuchat along with seven other acclaimed Chicago-area brass artists, Tower Brass Quintet was founded in 1997 as an extension of the music ministry of Fourth Presbyterian Church of Chicago. Since then, the Ensemble has flourished in countless settings throughout the Chicago area.
Today, the mission of the Tower Brass Ensemble is simply to create joy and beauty through music. Engaging diverse audiences is also important, as it allows more people to experience and appreciate the beauty of brass music. Music has the power to bring people together, regardless of their background or beliefs. The Tower Brass Ensemble strives to create this kind of connection with its audiences. We are delighted to welcome them to the stage of Armerding Concert Hall for a festive 75th anniversary Artist Series debut.
