Great Hall Concert Series-Isthmus Brass

Under the direction of brass-icon, John Stevens, and comprised of the finest professional brass players in the Midwest, the Isthmus Brass is Wisconsin’s premiere large brass ensemble.  

Named for a strip of land between the lakes of Mendota and Monona in Madison the IB was established in 2009 as some of the most high-profile brass players in the region looked for a way to collaborate and perform together.  They initially decided on a course of performing charitable Christmas Concerts, especially for the Porchlight Homeless Charity and at retirement homes in Madison. 

 Since then the group has taken off on the professional concert circuit and is currently being selected to perform on concert series and music festivals throughout the Midwest.
