The Solstice Sackbuts, costumed as time-travelers from the Renaissance, take the audience on a musical tour through the centuries, starting with medieval and Renaissance music, and continuing with Baroque, Classical and Romantic period music, and evolving into pop and jazz, along with interesting anecdotes about life during those times, the history of music and the history of the trombone.
