ArtsRock brings The New York Philharmonic Brass Quintet back to Rockland County for a very special, joyous holiday concert. The quintet, arguably the best brass players on the planet, is comprised of Trumpet, Joseph Burgstaller, Principal Horn, Philip Myers, Principal Trombone, Joseph Alessi, Principal Tuba, Alan Baer and Trumpet, Ethan Bensdorf. Both Alessi and Baer are Hudson Valley residents. The Quintet's uncompromising standards demand an acoustic environment that assures unfaltering clarity and richness in tone. And surprising to some, it was Temple Beth Torah that satisfied their search for aural perfection in an intimate setting. Don't miss this rare opportunity to see and hear these peerless, world renowned musicians in a small venue, wonderfully convenient to all Rockland and Bergen County residents.
