Velvet has performed as guest principal with the Lahti Philharmonic in Finland and worked with orchestras all over the US including the Detroit Symphony and Saint Louis Symphony Orchestra. She is also co-founder of MOJATUBA, a groundbreaking tuba and dance fusion project.

Velvet Brown also preforms a tuba recital this evening as part of her residency.
