Synergy Quintet

I am an amateur musician, but I have a fairly good ear. I enjoy singing, and I enjoy listening to good music.

I particularly enjoy brass music. The best known brass group is, of course, the Canadian Brass. There is also the Empire Brass.

Another group has caught my attention. They’re called the Synergy Quintet. They have a very clean sound, and play a wide variety of music. Synergy gave an interview at KUHF Radio in Houston on February 14, 2005, in which they demonstrate how wide their range is. The interview can be heard at the KUHF website.

Of course, the fact that my brother is the trombonist has nothing to do with this plug.blink face
