Hello and welcome to The Coupland Brass Quintet's
website.
The Coupland Brass Quintet was formed in October 2003, whilst all of the members were
studying music at The University of Manchester. Originally formed for an assessed recital,
the quintet’s repertoire has expanded from more serious music, including many original
compositions by fellow students (and, indeed, its own members) to lighter entertainment
pieces written and arranged for brass quintet.
The quintet has been in demand at many venues in Greater Manchester, Yorkshire, Derbyshire and the
south-west of England, and during the summer of 2005 toured the UK, visiting each of the members' home towns.
We enjoy all elements of the work we do as quintet, be it performing a recital of modern brass music,
providing a varied and accessible concert to 'the masses' or getting kids excited about
music and brass playing in one of our education workshops.
Please explore our website to find out more about what we do, what plans we have for the future,
and what services we may be able to offer you, in the form a recital, workshop or music for a function.
To find out more about The Coupland Brass Quintet, please go to the About the Quintet page.

We love to hear from our audiences after concerts and events, and indeed from our friends and other visitors to the site,
so please sign our Guestbook, or e-mail us
(details available on our Contact page).

During the next few weeks and months, we will slowly be adding the results of our recording session to the website. Keep checking back
to the recordings of a range from our repertoire.
[ Please note: there are a few links on the site which are
greyed-out.
This is because these links go to pages that are still under
construction or need to be updated. Check back soon and we'll
hopefully have these pages up and running. ]
