"Five competent trumpet masters, in no way starchy, will guide you with lightness, smartness and brilliance through all ages, forms and tones of their 'mascot instrument,'" the Lakeland Performing Arts Association said in a press release announcing the performance. "The thing that sets them apart from other brass ensembles is the fact that they play trumpets which range in size from the very high pitched piccolo trumpet to the large bass trumpet, and include between those the most commonly known trumpets as well as the cornet and flugelhorn."
The "Trompettes de Lyon" instrumental ensemble was born in 1989 from the meeting of five musicians trained in the academies of music and universities of Lyon. "These musicians have progressively let their taste for 'quirky fun' run loose on stage which has resulted in unabashedly entertaining and humorous shows that have met with ever increasing success, " the press release states.
