Music reviews of Bagpipes & Brass

Music Review: WOW! THIS CD IS OUT-OF-SITE -- A SONIC BLOCKBUSTER!
Rating: 5 Stars

First, it turns out the recording is not just BAGPIPES and BRASS, but BAGPIPES, BRASS and ORGAN! Talk about sonics! Who would have thought that such a diverse grouping of musical instruments could ever combine to make such beautiful, stirring and mind boggling music. (All right, so they not that diverse since they are all basically wind driven instruments.)

Since the listing/description available for this CD is rather scant, let me fill in the missing details:

The CD features THE DENVER BRASS, THE COLORADO ISLE OF MULL SAINT ANDREW'S PIPES AND DRUMS, and JOHN KUZMA on the organ. (Details on the organ were not supplied in the progam notes, but I would presume it is installed in the Bethany Lutheran Church of Englewood, Colorado where the recording was done.)

The various selections were arranged/transposed by either organist Kuzma or Dr. Kenneth Singleton, the conductor and artistic director of the Denver Brass. And each one of them can stand on their own -- varied and totally fantastic!

The CD is on the KLAVIER label.

You're really going to have to trust me on this one, but it is the best single CD I have listened to this year. (I've played it five times and everyone who hears it thinks it fantastic, too.)
I hope you're able to hear it and enjoy it, too.
