Desperate for an audience, a brass quintet from Alberta put on a moo-ving performance for the locals. “We’ve had a lot of different experiences but have never done anything quite like this,” euphonium player Rene Van De Vendel told CTVTerryVogt More:

“We’ve had a lot of different experiences,” said euphonium player Rene Van De Vendel, “but have never done anything quite like this.”

The stage was a 45-foot steel bale wagon, and the audience came in droves, or a drove. The musicians played for a group of 200 cows and calves. A few cowboys and cowgirls were on hand to rein in the concertgoers if they got out of hand. “Big Country, that was for the cows,” said Ken’s daughter Karly Lewis, a French horn musician who has played with the quintet since 2004.

Members of the quintet said they have a great bond with each other, and a common desire to play and share music. Over the years they have played at conventions, weddings and numerous other events.
