What is Bend in the River Brass Band mean?
River Brass (Formerly the Bend in the River Brass Band) was established in 1991 as a community band. Over the years, the band has developed into a high-caliber competing band. The group took its original name from the ox bow bend of the Ohio River that separates the cities of Evansville, Indiana and Henderson, Kentucky. As the band gained more members from across the tri-state region, the geographical footprint was well beyond the original "bend in the river", so the name was changed in the fall of 2015 to "River Brass" to include members who live near both the Ohio River and Wabash River. The band currently rehearses at Castle South Middle School in Newburgh, IN. Its current conductor is Dr. Pat Stuckemeyer.
River Brass follows the tradition of British brass bands in instrumentation and literature. River Brass is currently the only band of its type in the Southern Indiana/Western Kentucky region. Its members are non-professional post-high school players from southwestern Indiana, western Kentucky, and southeastern Illinois. Members range in age from the late teens to the eighties. This diverse group is brought together by their common interest in making and sharing high quality brass music.
River Brass's concert season typically consists of four concerts: a spring (pre-contest) concert, a summer concert, a fall classics concert, and a holiday concert. Concert sites vary depending on availability of venues.
