Standard work, new arrangement, and new music - great recording
This is a great recording, especially of The Danserye and the Bells for Stokowski. I actually prefer the wind ensemble version to the orchestral one. My only wish is that the miking had been done differently. There are very sensitive and nuanced phrases in the woodwinds that sound as if you are listening from the back of a huge concert hall, even with the volume turned up. Although it gives the listener the impression of actually being at a concert, it just has a distant feeling to it. However, the playing is exceptional and the brass sound is as homogeneous as you will hear anywhere. If you love the saxophone, you will love this recording. The sax sound on In Wartime and Bells for Stokowski is phenomenal. The University of Texas Wind Ensemble is one of the best non professional groups in the world, and Jerry Junkin is a superstar conductor.
Excellent band music -- fun to listen to
I really have enjoyed this album. The University of Texas Wind Ensemble performs very well, and the selection of music is one that you'll want to play over and over again. I recommend this album highly.
Excellent
The whole album is great, though the Danserye was a great one to toe-tap to. If you aren't humming something after this one, something is wrong :) Bells for Stokowski is wonderful, though particularly haunting in the opening chorale. The saxophones and contrabassoon... Bravo! This album certainly is deserving of the acclaim it has so far received.
