The Hunt for the Beast Beyond the Wall was composed by Denver Brass' own, Andrew Wolfe. The Hunt tells the story of a giant beast. A brooding movement, at the beginning, you can almost hear the beast snarling, relentless, frantic and terrifying, while a captivating melody soars over the jagged accompaniment. David Artley, Principal Trumpet

Altitude 5280 was composed by Charles Denler. Titled by Denver's signature altitude, exactly one mile above sea level, this new work is designed to be rhythmically driving, uplifting, and reflective of the cultural fusions of our city. Emmy award winning composer, Charles Denler, used the number 5-2-8-0 as the framework for intervals of the melody. The main melody, first stated by the trumpets, goes up a fifth(5), down a second(2), up an octave(8), then repeats the same note(0). These intervals, found in every piece of music, are arranged and performed in such a distinct way as to say, "The Denver Brass." David Artley, Principal Trumpet
