Brass Institutes of America

Brass Institutes of America The Brass Institutes of America is a non-profit organization providing brass chamber music festivals.

FredBrass was founded in 2013 by Austin Boyer and Buddy Deshler and hosted an initial group of 10 students. By 2014, the group had tripled in size and all 10 original students returned. Since then, we have had the privilege of hosting some of the world's best performers and educators the brass world has to offer. In 2021, the organization successfully transitioned to a 501c3 nonprofit organization

- Brass Institutes of America. We believe that the cost of an education should not dictate its value. Our goal is to provide an experience unlike anything else at a price well below the industry standard. Come find out for yourself why so many of our participants keep coming back!
