The Rodney Marsalis Philadelphia Big Brass Retreat

The Rodney Marsalis Philadelphia Big Brass 2025 Philadelphia Retreat

August 21 - August 25

The 2025 RMPBB Retreat is a unique opportunity for brass players from around the world to come together to share their love of brass playing. Participants come from all walks of life: students, teachers, professionals, enthusiasts, part-time players, comeback players, late starters, etc.

All are welcome in a non-competitive, friendly, supportive atmosphere where learning and sharing knowledge is the crucial element to the week.

The beautiful setting of Philadelphia's bucalic suburbs and an iconic stone home near Forbidden Drive and the sprawling Fairmount Park area will be the perfect backdrop for the retreat.
