The World’s ranked number 1 Brass Band and the current European Champions perform the first concert of their 2019 American tour in Northern Virginia Community
Cory is thrilled to be returning to the USA for the first time since 2016, this year as reigning European, British Open, Brass in Concert and UK Band of the Year Champions. The programme tonight will be everything you expect from this world-leading band, and much more. Cory will perform its award-winning Romeo and Juliet set, retelling William Shakespeare’s famous tragic tale like you’ve never heard it before, taking you on a roller-coaster ride of the senses which will make you laugh and make you cry, but most of all will leave you speechless with awe at Cory’s blistering performance. Many of Cory’s fantastic soloists will be featured throughout the evening and you will be treated to a wide-ranging mix of music old and new. It will be a not-to-be-missed experience!
The concert will begin with local band Rockville Brass Band which will surely get the evening off to a flying start!
