Since forming nearly 2 decades ago, Presidio Brass has rocketed to success as the face of a bold new generation in brass entertainment. By combining a brass quintet, piano, percussion instruments, guitar, and even vocals, with fresh, original arrangements, their unique sound has become a trademark for the ensemble from San Diego, CA, captivating audiences everywhere. The group signed a deal with Yamaha in 2013, making them an official Yamaha Performing Ensemble.

Presidio Brass has performed in over 40 states, as well as internationally in Canada and China. They have also been featured on National Public Radio.

Members of Presidio Brass have performed with major symphony orchestras, including the Los Angeles Philharmonic, Las Vegas Philharmonic, Pacific Symphony, and San Diego Symphony. When not on tour, they continue to perform with orchestras, maintain private teaching studios at local universities, arrange and compose new music, assist with public school music programs, and operate an annual summer music camp for students of all ages.

Presidio Brass came together with the primary mission to promote music education and music appreciation in youngsters. This is why at every opportunity, performances are coupled with a complimentary master class or school program for which the quintet volunteer their time.

The Presidio Brass Experience is a full-day residency that is comprised of a clinic and rehearsal workshop during the day, and a full public performance in the evening. The Experience is an excellent way to expose students to the quality of a nationally touring brass quintet, inspiring them to promote and cultivate their own musical abilities.
