brass band in Corelli's Mandolin

just saw this movie first time Saturday night... enjoyed the movie, and many of the music scenes.

There is one scene where the Italians are hosting a dance in the town square, and Penelope Cruz does a Tango (I think... not a dance expert, and i realize the Tango is from Argentina and the movie is set in Greece, so would it have been a tango? it looked similar to me anyway) with an Italian soldier.

I loved the music for that dance. The band consisted of mostly brass, but a clarinet or two as well it seemed.

Just wandering if there is a particular name for this type of ensemble/music, and if this type of music still has an active 'scene' anywhere? I just love it, but it certainly is not something you hear much.
