Opus 40

Coming this Saturday on the meadow! 🎶🌀💫 A raucous celebration of global brass music, with blazing horns and driving rhythms, this is music that’s loud, joyful, spontaneous and made for dancing! 💃🕺🎶 Check out a glimpse of the fun to come from Funkrust Brass Band and the West Philadelphia Orchestra 🎺🪊🎷 (Psst… we have carpool passes for up to 5 people in one vehicle for $65! Available until 8/21)

⭐️ Euphonia: Balkan & Brass Festival🪊🎶 Featuring Funkrust Brass Band @funkrustbrassband, an explosive post-apocalyptic disco punk outfit known for gritty original tunes, megaphone vocals, heavy tuba bass lines, thundering percussion, searing brass melodies and an anything-goes performance energy; West Philadelphia Orchestra @wpobrass, who seamlessly meld together traditional Balkan music, klezmer, New Orleans jazz, and Philly funk; ecstatic dance music from the southern Balkans and Turkey courtesy of the Mountain Lions, led by Matt Moran @mattmoinbk of Slavic Soul Party; and our very own Unicorn Brass Band @unicornbrassband, the house band of Kingston’s queer-forward Unicorn Bar, who bring all the pop, disco, and dance.

Expect big horns, bigger rhythms, plus Balkan dance lessons with Noel Kropf, for all levels!
