REVIEWS

Very fine writing and musicianship!
author: Jim Yedloutschnig
As a professional brass player, I am always interested in different musical styles and the compositions on this CD really held my interest. The cat on the Sousaphone is amazing, as he has the formidable challenge of keeping the time alive while laying down some very hip rhythmic lines. The solos are excellent and remain true to the style of each composition. I was particularly impressed by the range, flexibility, and sound of the two trumpets. This is no-nonsense playing and well worth checking out.
