About Capital Brass!


The new Capital Brass! has returned to performing in the Capital District! Although the original Capitol Brass was a field competition corps, the new group does not intend to compete on the field. They will instead focus on producing a high-quality brass & percussion ensemble that will explore all of the performance possibilities outside of field competition.

History:

Capitol Brass was a competitive senior corps (at first operating as Noble-Callahan) from 1985-1993 and was a DCA affiliate member for several years. They carried a full DCA schedule in their last few years, and placed in DCA Finals in 1993. The corps made consistent and steady competitive progress throughout their history, and is still the only competitive field corps, junior or senior, to hail from the Albany, NY area in the last 20 years.

Completing the Circle:

In 1994, after the demise of the drum corps, some Capitol Brass veterans created Brass-O-Mania!. This new, professional group would develop into a big band that was influenced heavily by our drum corps backgrounds.

Now, after 12 years of wowing crowds with B-O-M!, we're turning it back around and are bringing what we've learned and experienced to the new Capital Brass!
