ART OF BRASS VALENCIA, founded in 2003, brings together renowned musicians with extensive careers dedicated to excellence in chamber music. Their versatility and carefully crafted stage presence have enabled them to connect with diverse audiences. They have performed at venues such as the University of Valencia, IVAM, Teatro Rialto, and numerous auditoriums across the Valencian Community. The ensemble has also participated in festivals including the International Music Festival of Tarragona, Jinbao Summer Music Festival in China, Trumpetdays in Xàtiva, FAN Chelva 2023, FIT Xixona 2024, and Sagunta Escena. Notably, their collaboration with Teatre CRIT in the show "INNERLAND"—which fuses music and performing arts—has received critical acclaim and wide public appreciation.

'Walks and Views' consists of five evocative pieces that invite the audience on a peaceful journey exploring the richness of world music. These 'views' allow listeners to discover different sonic landscapes—sometimes implicitly, and at other times, as in the case of Canadian Portraits, explicitly enhanced by projected images synchronized with live music performance.
