The Philharmonic Brass – Philippe Auguin
Works by Gershwin, Williams, Morricone, Shostakovich, Verdi, Mascagni, Dvořák

The Philharmonic Brass was formed in 2023 by sixteen brass players and four percussionists, members of the Berlin and Vienna Philharmonic Orchestras & Friends. Eminent musicians spanning three generations bring together their passion and strengths to further expand their virtuosity. Working with conductors who are closely tied to both the Berlin and the Vienna Philharmonic, The Philharmonic Brass aim to create an unforgettable concert experience.

At the Odeon of Herodes Atticus concert, the orchestra will be performing popular film score pieces and classical works alike, under the baton of Maestro Philippe Auguin.
