The album Dialogue For Brass by Brass Choir is an impressive collection of brass pieces that showcases the ensemble's exceptional musicianship and versatility. From the opening track, "Fanfare for the Uncommon Brass," to the poignant "Elegy for Brass," the album takes the listener on a journey through a range of moods and styles.
The arrangements are skillfully crafted and highlight the unique qualities of each instrument in the ensemble. The brass choir's rich, warm sound is particularly effective in the slower, more contemplative pieces, such as "Chorale for Brass" and "Adagio for Brass."
One standout track is "Jazz Suite for Brass," which features lively rhythms and intricate harmonies that demonstrate the ensemble's ability to tackle more complex and challenging music. The album also includes a tribute to the late composer Leonard Bernstein with a stirring rendition of "Make Our Garden Grow" from his opera Candide.
