Customer Reviews Fantastic Horn Album Many segments of the music thrill me, nearly take my breath away. The hornists are simply fantastic. Although many pieces represent their diverse skills I would love to have a presentation of more of the fanfare type pieces, the type which show the glory and power of the horn. Love the Ewazen piece. Love the Irish pieces. Thought the recording was a little muffled. Had to turn my stereo up too loud to get the full effect. Over all one great horn album. Steve Ward. Farewell to Red Castle My favorite song is the second on the track. Take 9 is the best CD I own. Farewell to Red Castle. It's the most incredible peice, especially with 9 horns playing it. It is fun and exciting along with slow and beautiful. it's a great representation of the entire collection of Take 9's songs. wOOt!. An Awesome Recording The music is beautiful, but still showy, an excellent combination for this group of horns. This is an awesome recording combining 9 great players. Overture to Candide is incredible, and the Grand Canyon Suites is one of the greatest horn recording I have ever heard. This recording belongs in any horn players library. .
