This is different from most classical and instrumental cd's I have. It is neat to hear the euphonium showcased. You can tell that Adam Frey has a great sense of humor, the album art is fabulous! The album has a great variety, Flight of the Bumblebee is fantastic! I highly recommend this cd for anyone who wants a little something different in their classical collection.

I play tuba and I recently had a workshop and a private lesson with Adam where he played Flight of the Bumblebee at top speed, all 12 major scales in less than 30 seconds, and a song using multiphonics (playing and humming a different note at the same time) that sounded impossible! I'd never imagined someone could be this amazing at a low brass instrument but he is. He's really amazing and he deserves all the fame and recognition that he gets.

Adam Frey really makes his Yamaha 842S sing majestically throughout this cd. Yet again he manages to express such emotion with his playing.

Fantasie Originale and Flight of the Bumble Bee really show his technical prowess over the instrument reminiscent of Dennis Brain's mastery of the french horn.

The other pieces really showcase his ability to weave singular notes together into a beautiful feeling..as it's beyond simply hearing.
