5.0 out of 5 stars What a wonderful performance by both the soloist and band., September 11, 1999

By A Customer

The euphonium isn't as well known as other brass instruments, and I think Michael J. Colburn will help it to be better known with this CD. Mr. Colburn brings out the beautiful sound of this instrument. I recommend this CD for anyone who likes to listen to virtuoso solos and wishes to hear a great euphonium player.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent CD played on the best of Brass instruments, December 16, 1998

By A Customer

This is a CD that one can listen to countless times. The virtuoso playing and beautiful tone produced by Michael aptly display the characteristics of the euphonium. The selections are for college and graduate level players, as well as the occasionally "gifted" highschooler. A must hear, and a must buy.
