22-Piece Band

Everyone is saying that Prince has a 22-piece band. But then several reports of the SxSW show say he had a 22-piece BRASS BAND. So, does the "brass band" include drums, guitar, bass, etc., or does that just mean a 22-piece brass SECTION? And if that's the case, how many players TOTAL, including the 22-piece brass section?

Just looking for a little clarity.
