Concert Programs

Movies & TV

Bob grew up in front of the TV, so it's only natural that our programs and music reflect all of that early training:
Higlights include:

  • Music from Rocky - Why Rocky? YO - WHY NOT! - Actually Bob's mom was in the movie that's why
  • John Williams Medley
  • The Lone Ranger in an art Gallery

Variety

The Beatles? The Lone Ranger gallops through an art gallery? A contemporary piece affectionately renamed "Bad Sushi"?. It's all there & there's almost always some sort of story to tell. Our variety program includes favorites from the classical, contemporary and jazz repertoire mixed together in new and creative ways.

Holidays

Forget about chestnuts roasting on an open fire; It's time to hire Hickory Brass to burn up your concert stage with holiday music. Did you ever imagine 'Twas the Night Before Christmas set to music? Maybe you have and maybe you haven't, but we guarantee you that our version will warm the cockles of your hearts.

Patriotic Themes

Hickory Brass is proud to honor those who serve our country through community concerts and performances of Taps through Bugles Across America. Our Patriotic concert program includes marches, fanfares, and popular favorites.

Collaborations

Hickory Brass has successfully collaborated with many groups looking to enhance their concert experience with brass.

  • "When our original act had to cancel their appearance at the last minute, Hickory Brass stepped in and on three weeks notice, provided a brass quintet to perform for our annual concert series. We were delighted with the performance and the musicians. Even with short notice, Bob was also able to provide a great deal of support in the way of promotional materials. Further, Bob went out of his way during the performance to graciously acknowledge and thank to our event sponsors. We look forward to working with Hickory Brass again in the future." - Susan Mislick - Concert Coordinator
