Excellence since 1985, the Gainesville Brass Quintet performs the best in light classics, pop, swing, musicals, and for the purist, serious quintet literature from the Baroque through the modern eras.   


As North Florida's premier brass quintet, the GBQ performs for ceremonies, patriotic celebrations, weddings, church services, public concerts, educational concerts, and any other occasion where the glorious sound of brass helps make the event a most memorable one.

"Thank you for your part in the magnificent Horns and Pipes concert... Horns and Pipes would not be an authentic legitimate Gainesville Concert without the presence of the Gainesville Brass Quintet. The concert was well received by all who attended."
