The Dublin Silver Band presents
Cory Band in Concert — Hosted by Dublin Silver Band
Wales' most decorated brass band crosses the Atlantic for one unforgettable night in central Ohio.
The Cory Band — brass-band royalty
Founded in the Rhondda Valley of South Wales in 1884, the Cory Band is one of the most decorated ensembles in the history of brass — ranked the No. 1 brass band in the world for thirteen consecutive years and a champion at every major contest the art form has to offer.
In a single calendar year, Cory won the European, the British Open, the National, and the Brass in Concert championships — becoming the first band in history ever to hold all four major titles at once.
Under Music Director Philip Harper — a four-time Brass Band Conductor of the Year — Cory has toured the world, premiered landmark works, and set a standard of artistry few ensembles in any genre can match. A performance of this calibre in central Ohio is a genuine rarity.
One night, two bands
The evening opens with the Dublin Silver Band performing its SIDDIS Brass programme — the very music it carries to the international stage in Stavanger, Norway. After a brief reset, Cory Band takes the stage for a show you will be talking about for years.
A landmark hall at the heart of Ohio Wesleyan University, Gray Chapel is one of central Ohio's finest concert venues — home to a magnificent Klais pipe organ and the warm, generous acoustics that brass was made for.
