Imagine hearing your favorite music again for the very first time. That singular moment of awe, wonder and emotional resonance. What music lover wouldn’t want to have that experience?

The Magnolia City Brass Band proudly presents a concert experience featuring beloved masterworks from the worlds of classical, pop, jazz and rock, originally composed for other instrumentation. Reimagined and performed through the bold voice of an all-brass band, audiences will have the unique opportunity to rediscover familiar favorites transformed by the resonance of Houston’s Magnolia City Brass Band, hearing them as if it was for the first time.
