The Triangle Brass Band is a group of brass and percussion performers drawn from the Research Triangle Park area of North Carolina. Members of the band are selected by audition and come from a variety of careers, including school band directors, college faculty, lawyers, computer programmers, engineers, medical personnel, and general contractors. The Band was created in 1986 as a joint venture of the A.J. Fletcher Foundation and Capitol Broadcasting of Raleigh, North Carolina. Since 1989, the Triangle Brass Band has sustained itself as a non-profit, educational 501(c)(3) organization.
