BRILLE INFO
Brille Brass 是由香港一班熱心於音樂演奏的樂手於2010年9月初自發組成的一隊銅管五重奏，這班樂手有感於現時大部分五重奏都只會在有演出時才臨時組織一兩次排練，樂曲不夠熟練之餘，曲種的選擇和多元化亦不足，因此便相約組隊，於每星期安排定期排練，預先為各類型表演準備好不同的曲目，樂手熟習歌曲之餘，亦培養出一份默契。
Brille 的德文翻譯的眼鏡，因為五位成員都是戴眼鏡的，所以以此命名，另外，Brille的法文翻譯則有閃耀的意思，亦代表了五重奏金光閃閃的樂器。一般的銅管五重奏都是由兩支小號、一支圓號、一支長號和一支大號組成，不過Brille Brass就以低音長號代替了大號。
成員大都在香港的專上學院主修音樂，並擁有豐富的樂團演出經驗，他們包括負責小號的 李幗賢(Jex)和 梁偉信(Tommy)，負責圓號的 黃肇瑋(Tommy)，負責長號的 陳國浩(國浩)和負責低音長號的 蔡奕熙(Samson)。
