Pete,

It also got a 'thumbs up' in the Fanfare magazine I scanned yesterday at Barnes & 
Noble.

Subject:        [Hornlist] Romantic Music for Brass

The Center City Brass Quintet has released a new CD entitled "Romantic Music 
for Brass" on the Chandos label (Chandos CHAN10140).  Richard King, Principal 
hornist for the Cleveland Orchestra, is a founding member of the quintet whose 
members all have had experience in Major American orchestras.   The works on 
the disc are Mendelssohn's Quartet No. 1(premiere recording of a very fine 
arrangment by Verne Reynolds), Ewald's Quintet No.3, and Oskar Boehme's Sextet 
for Brass.  

A trumpet playing friend of mine, who usually is not a big fan of brass 
quintet CD's, turned me onto this disc as he was impressed, as was I,  with the 
musicality and lovely sound of this group.  Needless to say, the playing on this 
disc is specatular and I was impressed by the lovely trumpet playing. 

Highly recommended even if you're not a fan of brass quintets.


Happy listening!
