Mnozil Brass

Norton Center for the Arts

Seven men sit in a line amidst a white background while a reflective image of themselves occupies the bottom third of the image. Starting from the left, there is a man with a silver trombone in a black suit, two men in gray suits holding trumpets, a man in a black suit with a trumpet, a man in a dark gray suit holding a tuba, and two men in light gray suits holding a mellophone and trombone, respectively.

Known as the Monty Python of the music world, Austrian septet Mnozil Brass seamlessly combines slapstick comedy with virtuosity. Hailed as one of the world’s premier brass ensembles, this group blends classical, jazz, folk and pop with sketch comedy, silly songs and side-splitting buffoonery on their trumpets, trombones, French horn and tuba. Mnozil Brass takes its name from Gasthaus Mnozil, a restaurant across the street from the Vienna Conservatory, where seven young music students met and began playing at a monthly open mic in 1992. 30 years later, Mnozil Brass performs for sold-out houses around the world. Jubilee, its 2023 album on Universal, cheekily pays tribute and celebrates Mnozil Brass’s greatest hits and new works.
