Band History

  • 2022

    The Cincinnati Brass Band returned to NABBA after a 3-year absence due to COVID-19. Under the direction of our conductor, Dr. Ben Chamberlain, the band had its best finish in 16 years. We placed 2nd in the Second Section, performing Hope (test piece), Amazing Grace, and Shine as the Light. In the summer of 2022, the band played a variety of show and jazz tunes and were accompanied by jazz vocalist Emily Grace Jordan. We performed at Diner en Blanc – Cincinnati, Washington Park, Crescent Springs Music Festival in KY, Twin Lakes Retirement Community, Union Township
