  The VAAG Brass Quartet will be hosting a masterclass and concert

A brand new world class brass quartet will be making its UK debut later this month.

The VAAG Brass Quartet consists of Vincent Bearpark, Anthony Rausis, Anne Barras and Glenn Van Looy and will perform in concert at the headquarters of the Geneva Group in Stockton on Saturday 29th June (7.30pm).

Masterclass

The group will also be hosting a free masterclass at the Geneva Bandroom earlier in the day (10.00am — 12.00 noon).

The event is also free to attend and will see the foursome perform ensemble and solo features. Each player is a Geneva International Performance Artiste and has already gained critical acclaim as performers in their own right.

Delighted

A spokesperson told 4BR: "We are delighted to welcome the VAAG Brass Quartet and we hope players will come along to enjoy what promises to be both a unique masterclass opportunity and a concert from four world class performers."
