Buzz cuivres farfelus' (Buzz Oddball Brass) mission is to popularize chamber music for brass ensemble to worldwide audiences and most particularly, young people.
How?
By offering accessible and entertaining musical shows in which music and theatre are combined in perfect harmony.
Also, by proposing concerts and sound recordings featuring a high level of musical interpretation.
Buzz consists of two trumpets, a horn, a trombone, and a bass trombone. As well as playing musical selections from the classics of the repertoire for brass quintet, the musicians play original compositions and exclusive arrangements.
Buzz also consists of one oddball an actor who intervenes during our “musitheatrical” presentations. Under the actor's direction, a theme is carefully chosen and dramatized in order to assure interaction between music and audience. The actor plays the main characters. The musicians play supporting characters as well as performing music from memory, thus assuring efficient staging and keeping the music in forefront.
With the use of diverse musical influences, high quality performance, and fresh theatrical settings, Buzz invites its audience to rediscover music as they have never experienced or even imagined it before!
