A concert featuring the Gainesville Brass Quintet will be held on Sunday, March 27, at 3:00pm in the First Presbyterian Church sanctuary, 520 Royal Palm Boulevard, Vero Beach. This event is free to the community; a $10 donation is suggested.

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. Members include: Joseph Jamerson (trumpet), Cliff Newton (trumpet), Miranda Sims (horn), Charles Propper (trombone), and Robin Sisk (tuba). They are all members of the Gainesville Orchestra and many more ensembles, as well as freelance musicians throughout the Sunshine State. 

Please note that, while most concerts at First Presbyterian have started at 4:00pm, this concert begins at 3:00pm. For more information, please contact Ginger Lagemann, Music and Arts Publicist, at (772) 562-9088 or ginger@firstpresvero.org.
