Mnozil Brass takes its name from the “Gasthaus Mnozil,” a restaurant across the street from the Vienna Conservatory, where, in 1992, seven young brass musicians met and began playing at a monthly open-mic. Since then, the group has embraced repertoire for all ages and stages of life from folk to classical to jazz to pop, all executed with the same fearlessness, immense technical skill, and typical Viennese "schmäh" (almost impossible to find an English translation, but best rendered as a kind of sarcastic charm).

With more than 130 performances a year, the group has sold out houses from the farthest reaches of the European continent to Israel, China, Taiwan, Japan, Australia, Canada, and the United States. No wonder their videos have garnered millions of YouTube views and their fans have travelled countless miles to hear them play.

In their time away from touring, Mnozil Brass has recorded eight albums and six DVDs. They have collaborated on three operetta and opera productions, and composed and recorded the music for the 2006 film Freundschaft
