Southern California Brass Consortium

The Southern California Brass Consortium (SCBC), America’s largest professional symphonic brass ensemble, is a non-profit organization founded in 2013. Its mission is to share the exhilarating spirit of brass music through concerts, recordings, educational outreach, and world premiere compositions. SCBC is an ensemble of 25 professional brass players and percussionists (and a harp!), many of whom are studio musicians, as well as performing in such ensembles as the Los Angeles Philharmonic, Pacific Symphony, the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra, and entertainment venues such as Disneyland theme park. SCBC is also dedicated to the commissioning of new works; over the last 10 years, the group has presented over 20 world premieres. SCBC’s relationship with the film industry allows us to present new arrangements of film music from past to present. SCBC creates 90% of its own custom arrangements, as many of our members are highly-skilled composers and arrangers.
