“The Axiom Brass Quintet is committed to honest and serious music-making at the highest level. Their chamber-music sensibility reflects the tradition of the most venerable and respected string quartets, even as the group displays a unique and compelling aesthetic around passionate and poetic brass performance.”

“…beauty and fullness of tone, precise intonation, virtuosic technique, expressive dynamic range, and stylistic flexibility. Axiom commands a repertoire ranging from Early Music and Renaissance to the most challenging contemporary compositions of today, not to mention a fluency in the jazz idiom that puts most ensembles to shame… It is rare to find an ensemble possessing such artistic qualities also so devoted to education and outreach in its community, but this quintet is such an ensemble.”

“I have had the pleasure of working with Axiom Brass for many years in many capacities. They are world-class artists and collaborative colleagues! I gladly offer my highest recommendation…. Your ensembles and audiences will love them and find them inspiring!”

“It has been my great pleasure to collaborate with the Axiom Brass Quintet at Tanglewood for the past several summers. They are all wonderful musicians and terrific teachers. The performances when they have been soloists have been highlights of the summer.”

“From the moment they stepped on stage to the final standing ovation the group proved their experience, talent and personality. Their level of playing was superb and equal to the many great musicians who have played on our festival stage.”

“[Axiom Brass] has quickly become one of the most popular tickets of the presenting series in Nichols Concert Hall… I have no doubt that any presenting venue would benefit from adding Axiom Brass to the series roster. The level of their professionalism, technical skill and musicianship is truly superior.”

“Your professionalism and talent is remarkable, and we were so proud to present you as the Fischoff Educator Prize Winners. People around campus are still talking about it! We have had rave reviews… I am in Axiom withdrawal!”

“Words cannot express how pleased I was with their joyful performance and the delight of our students… Their dedication to music and enthusiasm for music-making was exuberantly transmitted to our students as they presented their diverse repertoire… They augmented the performance with lively explanations, background information, and a patient and informative question-and-answer session.”

“We always need to raise the bar, and the only way to do that is to see how high it can go! You guys certainly showed us that!”

“Being able to listen to the Axiom Brass has gotten me past that brick wall and they have inspired me to go beyond what I have ever thought I could go. The Axiom Brass is by far the best brass quintet I have ever heard!”

“This was by far the best music camp I’ve ever attended. I learned so much not only about music for a concert but music for my whole life. I truly believe my playing has gotten to a point that would normally have taken me months to get to… All of you taught me things I won’t ever forget.”

“These Axiom guys were the bomb!”

“This fresh-faced quintet… made a bold statement by the way they tackled a tricky assortment of works… Chamber music and brass fans would do themselves a great service by keeping an eye out for this standout group of musicians.”

“As far as champions go, the genre could do worse.”

“Unquestioningly, this is a very fine ensemble… their top-notch musicianship and warm, easy rapport with the audience — and with each other — made for a really nice, and thoroughly entertaining, performance.”
