Connaught Brass

Top Brass: From Clara to Kurt

It’s a very welcome return to Skipton Town Hall for rising-star trumpeter Aaron Akugbo (Solus Trumpet Ensemble, April 2022), this time performing with Connaught Brass.

Winners of the inaugural Philip Jones International Brass Ensemble Competition in 2019, the ‘Connaughts’ are quickly making a name for themselves as a fresh and vibrant talent in the chamber music world – perfect for Skipton Music’s season finale!

Programme to include:

Clara Schumann – Romance
Steven Verhelst – Suite from Pulcinella 2.0
Michael Tilson Thomas – Street Song
Kurt Weill – Suite from The Threepenny Opera

With kind support from Skipton Rotary
