The Brass Ensemble was organized in the summer of 1952 by Roger Voisin, because there was a need for a representative brass group in Boston. A vast amount of very interesting brass literature had accumulated through the years, but had few outlets to the public. For many years Chicago and New York were the only cities in the United States that had anything like a brass ensemble.

The professional lives of The Brass Ensemble's eight members are as interesting as they are varied. They play as a concert group for all-brass and all-instrumental concerts anything from an octet to a quartet, and they play in conjunction with choral groups such as the Chorus pro Musica. They conduct educational Brass Clinics to coach other musicians and they definitely enjoy playing for their own amusement.
