Festive Brass 2010
December 20th, 2010 by
It’s difficult to believe that we’re already past another wonderful Festive Brass concert and that Christmas is a mere 5 days away!
As in years past, this concert was the perfect way to usher-in the Holidays with its Christmas-inspired musical selection and carol sing-along accompanied by exceptional brass musicians. This year, the concert featured guest organist James Calkin, Capital BrassWorks’ own Elizabeth Simpson on the French Horn and the University of Ottawa Trombone Quartet.
Capital BrassWorks and the Centretown Emergency Food Centre wish to thank everyone who attended and especially those who gave to our brothers and sisters in need in our city center. Together, we raised a total of $1001.95 in donations along with two cartons of food staples!
Merry Christmas, Happy New Year and stay-tuned for the next concert, Dramatic Brass (March 25, 2011), which will feature the launch of Capital BrassWorks’ latest album, Brass Britannia. You won’t want to miss it!

In the spirit of giving this Christmas Season, Capital BrassWorks has once again invited the Centretown Emergency Food Centre (CEFC) to collect food and financial donations at their up-coming Festive Brass 2010 concert.
The CEFC provides a three-day emergency food hamper to Centretown residents in need once per month. The centre is staffed by volunteers directed by the Centretown Churches Social Action Committee.
We hope to see many of you at the concert this December and hope you will consider bringing a non-perishable food item with you!
