Please join us as we celebrate 63 years of “Bringing to YOU, Musicians at their Best.”
Members of Symphony East gather throughout the year for a series of luncheons featuring guest speakers and artists. In recent years, members and guests have enjoyed a splendid variety of musical programs: solo and group performances by Pittsburgh Symphony musicians, various vocal presentations; jazz and popular music performers; the CAPA show choir; and the Franklin Regional Band’s Wind Ensemble previewing their Thanksgiving Day and Tournament of Roses parades performances.

Our March 2025 Event:
Brass from the Bluff
Brass Quintet in residence at the Duquesne University Mary Pappert School of Music
Monday, March 17
The Brass from the Bluff are in residence at Duquesne University’s Mary Pappert School of Music where they perform on campus each semester for the music appreciation students. In addition, the Brass from the Bluff offer their experience and encouragement for community outreach concerts and clinics at St. Mary of the Mount, Pathfinder School, St. Benedict the Moor School, and other educational venues.
The performers are Paul Doerksen and Chris Cox, trumpet, Benjamin Cacioppo, French horn, Edward Kocher, trombone and euphonium, and Michael Panza tuba and arranger. The members of the ensemble are seasoned performers and educators and look forward to engaging with the audience by sharing tales of their journey to the stage and classroom.
For the March 17 Symphony East program, the ensemble has created a varied concert that is informative, inspiring and fun! The program includes brass chamber music from the Baroque Era, a sackbut demonstration, a charming movement from the classic era, a trumpet, flugelhorn and bass trumpet feature,” the iconic “Suite” by Gustav Holst, and the timely “St. Patrick’s Day Medley.”
The members of the Brass from the Bluff are grateful for the opportunity to share their love of brass chamber music with Symphony East and look forward to their March performance with great anticipation.
