5.0 out of 5 stars HIFI sound and more, April 20, 2000

An EXCELLENT quality recording, especially the low organ pedal tones on the last track (16-32hz). The last 10 seconds of the CD has a continuous 16hz pedal C!

5.0 out of 5 stars Incredible!! The Best Ron Nelson Collection Around!!, November 13, 2003

This is yet another example of one of the best band sounds on any audio recording. The Dallas Wind Symphony under the baton of Jerry Junkin and Ron Nelson himself produces an interpretation of some of Ron Nelson's masterwoks that is so spectacular that I challenge anyone to find a better one. I give this recording all of the praise that a collection of recordings of this caliber deserves. Well done Dallas Wind Symphony!This CD contains many examples of what a truly talented wind ensemble can do. This disc is a must-have item for any student of music or just someone who enjoys wind band music. Band Music just doesn't get much (if any) better than this. Once again: Well done Dallas Wind Symphony!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Ron Nelson - My Favorite Composer, August 5, 2004

Having worked with Mr. Nelson personally, I find him and his music to be an inspiration to classical music composition of the 21st century. Nelson takes full advantage of the dynamic and aesthetic potential a wind symphony has to offer: from the light and fun "Rocky Point Holiday" to the dark and powerful "Epiphanies". This recording is a must-have for anyone having any taste in classical music.
