<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'>Yes, that is Mnozil. I saw them live in Indiana last Friday evening---they are a show not to be missed. An interesting little item in their program notes:<div><br></div><div><div>"All seven members of the band studied at the University of Music in Vienna, graduating as well-rounded musicians who, in the </div><div>meantime, have found their places too as teachers in professional musical life. But they never lost their nerve and remain flippant </div><div>enough to create from their virtuosic playing and unique kind of comedy the kind of scenes on stage which are so clever that they </div><div>would be worthy of Monty Python. </div></div><div><br></div><div>Despite or maybe because of their academic backgrounds, it is important and, we add, perhaps necessary to have fun. Musical </div><div>cabaret and comedy are rare birds indeed. And Mnozil Brass assumes they will be playing for an intelligent audience, one able to </div><div>imagine what they are getting at. Enlightenment is their watchword, and this is paired with a kind of laid back perfection. This is what <span style="font-size: 12pt;">the septet is known for, and loved for. Not only in the city centre of Vienna." </span></div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I have had the pleasure of seeing them live and also 2 years ago in a master class. They did the number shown in this video on Friday evening.</span></div><div><a href="http://www.mnozilbrass.at/en/" target="_blank">http://www.mnozilbrass.at/en/</a><div><br></div><div><br><div>Dennis F.
