the group that started new york's
"love affair" with ceremonial trumpeters
The King's Brass is an entertainment company employing highly trained, experienced, professional musicians, whose principal purpose is to provide its clients with the finest fanfares and ceremonial brass music available in the New York Metropolitan Area. We also offer assistance in planning all facets of your party, ceremony, and reception music.
The King's Brass provides fanfares and renaissance, baroque, and classical music for your special occasion. We act as liaison with your organist, musicians, or Maitre D' to arrange for spectacular entrances, announcements, processionals, and recessionals.
Our trumpeters wear renaissance costumes (view our large selection of colors and styles on the photo page), tuxedoes, or tophats and tails. Long, herald trumpets, with attached, colorful banners, are played.
The King's Brass services include the Kings Court for those who are looking for the convenience of "one stop shopping". The King's Court includes:
A highlighted feature in the King's Court is the King's Brass Quintet -- a lively upbeat sound that is sure to make the cocktail hour an absolute success. This "Little Big Band" has a repertoire which includes dixieland, ragtime, popular and show music.
It depends on what you want. Two trumpets are certainly going to cost less than four. You can use any combination of musicians you can think of and the prices will vary accordingly.
Because our experience is unsurpassed. We originated and developed the concept of costumed trumpeters in the metro area. Our punctuality and dependability is unquestioned. Thousands of couples who we played for will tell you that we really care about you. We listen to your personal tastes and needs and realize that each bride and groom are unique. Your special day is just as important to you as our reputation is to us. Call for a free consultation.
