Join us on Sunday, August 7 at 6:00 p.m. to enjoy a musical performance by Calliope Brass on the porch of the historic Theodore Roosevelt home. An all-female brass quintet, Calliope Brass will be performing popular songs from the late 19th and early 20th centuries including works by Scott Joplin, John Philip Sousa, Irving Berlin, and the Original Dixieland Jazz Band.

Versatile musicians trained at top conservatories, Calliope Brass performs repertoire ranging from jazz to classical, and pops to swing. Their members have performed with notable ensembles including Wicked on Broadway, Ensemble ACJW, New York Chamber Orchestra, and Manhattan Symphonie. Calliope is committed to excellence in multiple pursuits, in order to further the role of women brass musicians as artists and teachers.
