This review is from: Little Buckaroos (Audio CD)

Adam Frey and Scott Hartman perform beautifully. I'm referring to both their technicality and the emotion that can be gleaned from their playing.

The Euphonium Concerto is a wonderful piece that showcases Mr. Frey's virtuosity with the euphonium; from deep bellowous tones to swift, vibrant uplifting ones.

The signature track Little Buckaroos is a lively piece with some western themes throughout.

The rendition of Willson's 76 Trombones is a lot of fun to hear and filled with energy.

I am astonished the amount of emotion that is expressed through all of these pieces.

Duelin' Banjos is the perfect selection to finish up the cd and is a wonderful performance featuring Mr. Hartman and Mr. Frey in tandem.
