Our Noon Hour Concerts are back for another incredible season of music and community building under the artistic direction of our Music Director Ann-Marie MacDairmid. After a long hiatus, we are excited to welcome guests back into our sanctuary to enjoy these concerts in person and we will continue to stream live to our YouTube channel.
Admission to the building is free, and a sandwich lunch is available for purchase prior to each recital between 11:30am - 12:15pm with the concert beginning at 12:15pm.
We look forward to welcoming the musical community back to our sanctuary this fall.
About Full House Brass
Three treble and two bass instruments make up the Full House Brass quintet. Deb, Dave, Randi, Carolyn and Susan divide their time between Kitchener-Waterloo and Stratford. Since their debut concert in November 2014, they have performed in a variety of settings including a cushion concert for children, garden parties, birthday parties, a business Christmas party, at the St. Andrew's and First United Churches’ Noon-Hour Series, church and memorial services, a wedding, in a barn at the “Cows & Classics” fundraising event, at Lost & Found Theatre’s Christmas presentation, and during the pandemic in Susan’s garage, Dave’s backyard, on Randi’s deck, and online through Jamulus.
You may have heard these locally-connected musicians in other groups such as: Wellington Wind Symphony, Stratford Concert Band, Ebytown Brass, K-W Chamber Orchestra, Stratford Symphony Orchestra, Waterloo Chamber Players, and Brassroots.
Full House Brass hopes there is something for everyone in their varied programme of brass quintet music, and they look forward to playing at your garden party or wedding celebration!
