KamBrass Quintet is a promising ensemble in today’s music scene. The five members share a deep passion for chamber music, focusing on premiering new compositions, presenting original works, and delivering unique arrangements. Versatility and musicality define their approach, as is evident in each performance’s repertoire. They have performed at renowned festivals like Festival Emergents in the L’Auditori Barcelona, International Chamber Music Festival MonteLeón Foundation, Lucerne Festival, Hohenloher Kultursommer, Kings Place Festival in London, Zunftkonzerte Zürich, Davos Festival, and the Schleswig-Holstein Festival, among others. They complement this activity with academic training under musicians such as Claudio Martínez and Anton Kernjak at the Basel School of Music, and in the European Chamber Music Academy (ECMA). Previously, they pursued the Chamber Music Master at the Lucerne School of Music with Isabel Charisius and Immanuel Richter, among others. Cuarteto Casals, Kuss Quartet, Matthias Hoffs, Achilles Liarmakopoulos, and the Spanish Brass, among others, have also participated in the academic stage of the group.
