About the Lyric Brass
Formed in 1998, The Lyric Brass Quintet (Bob Couto & Kevin Dines, Trumpets; Larry Williams, Horn; Brandon Rivera, Trombone; and Andrew Spang, Tuba) quickly distinguished itself as one of the premier brass chamber groups in the region. As winners of the 2000 Baltimore Chamber Music Competition they performed at ARTSCAPE (Baltimore's Festival of the Arts), and their debut CD, Daydreams, Desires and Diversions was released the same year to critical acclaim. They have been featured artists on the Baltimore Composer's Forum, the Peggy and Yale Gordon Trust Concert Series, and at the Foxboro Orpheum in Boston. They have appeared as soloists in Eric Ewazen's concerto grosso, Shadowcatcher, with the Peabody Wind Ensemble and were featured artists on Virginia's Catch a Rising Star Concert Series. LBQ is sponsored, in part, by Stu's Music Shop in Westminster, Maryland and have served as artists in residence at the Goucher Summer Arts Institute. They are now in residence in at Carroll Community College. LBQ's second recording, Christmas Around the World, was released in December 2002, and their third CD, Ancient Noëls, will be released this fall.
The members of The Lyric Brass are strongly committed to education. They have given clinics and masterclasses at festivals and schools throughout the U.S., and have been featured performers and clinicians for the Maryland Music Educators Association State Conference, and the Music Educators National Conference All Eastern Conference.
