Carolina Brass is the name chosen by two different brass quintets based in North Carolina. Carolina Brass in Charlotte Carolina Brass was founded in 1980 by four principal brass musicians of the Charlotte Symphony and a professor of music at Davidson College. Since its founding, Carolina Brass has given hundreds of performances throughout the Southeast, including the Piccolo Spoleto festival in Charleston, SC. Over the years, Carolina Brass has performed many educational concerts, church services, weddings, and recitals.
