5.0 out of 5 stars great!, August 30, 1999
By A Customer
This is a truly splendid CD. Each song is wonderfully played and Arranged. In turkish rondo, the french horn player and the trumpets do a great job. And in Sarbande by Handel, and Bolero by Ravel, htey do even better! Two big thumbs up!

4.0 out of 5 stars Canadian Brass Strikes Again!, May 31, 2000
By Michael Rizzotto (Fresh Meadows, New York United States) - See all my reviews
This is a fun cd to listen to. The recording is very clear and crisp, each instrument shines. Also, the cover photo is comical. I have several other Canadian Brass recordings and I think they are all interesting. A truly talented band of skillful musicians.

4.0 out of 5 stars Bolero et al., October 9, 2008
Very enjoyable CD. A variety of light classical works that make this a serious or easy listening CD. The sounds of the various brass instruments on this recording are wide and varied. It is fascinating to listen to familiar works and hear the new brass voices taking the place of other instruments. Overall a lively collection that will make your day.
