Holiday Brass is an ensemble featuring musicians primarily from the brass section of the Saint Louis Symphony Orchestra, Missouri, who come together each year to perform concerts to raise money for the International Women’s Brass Conference.
Susan Slaughter, who performed as principal trumpet in the Saint Louis Symphony Orchestra until the 2009-2010 season, established the ensemble in the 1992 and their annual performances are held at the Saint Louis Cathedral Basilica.
