More than a dozen trumpets and brass players with pipe-organ will offer a sight and sound to behold! Under the direction of James Olcott and boasting a vast repertoire stretching from the Renaissance to the present, the TCTE is in demand for appearances around the region. The ensemble also boasts two smaller trumpet ensembles, a jazz group of six trumpets, and is augmented by timpani, a jazz rhythm section, and occasional low brass. Fans of the TCTE remark upon the range and virtuosity of both the musical selections and the players. A Twin Cities Trumpet Ensemble concert is a musical feast not to be missed!
