4.0 out of 5 stars The one you need, June 26, 2000

By	iVan Wong (Hong Kong) - See all my reviews

If you are to buy only 1 CD for Brass Enemble, Get this! It captured the BEST of the Candian Brass (one of the top brass enemble in the world). It has all the nice tunes, e.g. Four Seasons, Cannon in D, etc. Strongly recommended.
