The 5 Browns – classical music’s first family of pianists.
Whether performing individually or together in various combinations, from duo to complex five-piano arrangements, The 5 Browns reveal a deep connection to the intent of their material and bring a fresh energy and dynamic character to the color and tonal spectrum of their sound.
The 5 Browns – Ryan, Melody, Gregory, Deondra and Desirae – were the first family of five siblings ever accepted simultaneously into The Juilliard School. The quintet enjoyed their first wave of critical attention in February 2002 when People Magazine dubbed them the “Fab Five” at the same time they were featured on “Oprah” and “60 Minutes.” Their debut album also drew critical acclaim, with the New York Post proclaiming, “One family, five pianos and 50 fingers add up to the biggest classical music sensation in years.”
In the music world, they are an unprecedented concert attraction: a singular quintet of concert pianists, performing on five pianos and various ensemble combinations, dedicated to bringing classical music to the lives of people everywhere.
When The 5 Browns sit down to perform on their five Steinway Grand pianos, their eyes lock and a silent signal passes between them. And in an instant they are transformed, from “regular kids” to musical dynamos.
