Brass Bonanza

Brass Bonanza has been running annually since 2012. A full day event, students join us from 10am to 5pm to make a lot of noise and improve their brass playing abilities, before performing to family and friends at the end of the day. In past years we have welcomed Australian trumpeter Greg Spence to run a series of masterclasses, and enjoyed the talents of locally based 10 piece ensemble MOD Brass. As well as ensemble playing, past events have included a musical treasure hunt, making brass instruments from hosepipes and funnels, and performing the world premier of the specially commissioned piece “Spooked!” for mass brass ensemble, by Dubai based composer Joanna Marsh. Always a hit with our brass students, the Bonanza is a highlight of the year for students and teachers alike!

Participation in Brass Bonanza costs AED100, which includes all musical resources. Players aged 8 to 15 with at least one term’s experience are welcome to join us. Students are divided into groups by age and ability, to ensure that the materials and activities on the day are suitably challenging and enjoyable.

The next Brass Bonanza will take place on Friday 20th April 2018. If you’d like to find out more, please email workshops@cmadubai.com
