Opus 40

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! Featuring Funkrust Brass Band, an explosive post-apocalyptic disco punk outfit, and West Philadelphia Orchestra, who seamlessly meld together traditional Balkan music, klezmer, New Orleans jazz, and Philly funk.

Funkrust Brass Band is 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.
