The Atlanta Symphony Brass Quintet was founded in 1968 as the "Ceremonial Troupe" of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, making it the oldest chamber ensemble in Atlanta.

The Quintet presents a varied repertoire, from original transcriptions of Renaissance and Baroque music through theatrical pieces and commissioned works by Southeastern composers.

The ASBQ has appeared on National Public Radio's Performance Today, and in 1996 was the "house band" for four days of live radio broadcast over NPR to 40 countries. The Quintet's performances are also featured on the "Spirit of '96" NPR CD.

In October 1992, The Quintet provided all the music for the Tribune Broadcasting live worldwide broadcast of The Search for Scarlet, performing civil war salon music in the State Capitol.

In 1993 the ensemble toured Norway in 1993, premiering Allusions by John Cheetham, which was commissioned for the Quintet by the Atlanta Committee for the Olympic Games.

The Atlanta Symphony Brass Quintet performs at Kennesaw University and throughout the U.S.A.
