“I would like to take a brief moment to mention the workshop that the Presidio Brass held at my school last month. The gentlemen in the quintet presented lively and diverse tunes for my students. The variety was quite remarkable and the artistry they demonstrated easily on par with any other brass quintet I have experienced. Having seen Canadian Brass twice “back in the day” and more recent experiences with the Boston Brass, as well as the US Army quintet and a few others, I feel I have been able to sample my fair share of groups. What I most enjoyed was the personalities of the members… each had their own distinct pathway to musical life, and at no point did it feel like they were trying too hard to be quirky or “out there”, they felt completely like real people, playing the music they love in the way they wanted, on instruments they love to play.” Joe Sensor, Director of Bands, Dubois Area High School, DuBois, PA
“Presidio Brass demonstrated that they truly are one of America’s premier brass quintets through a formal concert that was of the absolute highest musical quality. The musical program was by far one of the most technically challenging and professionally performed concerts I have ever had the joy of witnessing.” Andrew D. Feyes, Band Director, Bryan City Schools, Bryan, OH

“…[we] enjoyed the concert so much. We think it is about the best, perhaps the absolute best concert of the Community Concert Series we have attended in the seven or eight years we have subscribed.” Mark Coffman, Grants Pass, OR
“Thank you for performing in Bryan, OH, tonight. We really enjoyed your performance! Thank you for your gift of music, the passion you have for education, the fun you have playing, and for being so down-to-earth. We will watch your calendar for your next visit in our area.” Jane Yahraus, Bryan, OH
“The Community Concerts in our rural areas are a great opportunity for us and I love going. Many times we get very personable performers who are not very accomplished musically. And we get accomplished musicians that are not very personable. I must say that your quintet was the best of both. So, yours was definitely one of my favorite performances. Thanks so much to all!” Nina Buzby, Matthews, VA
“My wife and I greatly enjoyed your performance in Silver City, NM. Your choice of selections and the way you played them exceeded our best expectations. The regard you have for each other came across to us unexpectantly. We got the feeling that we were with you as participants rather than mere spectators. This is all together uplifting.” Martin and Sharon Young, Silver City, NM
