      5 out of 5 stars Should be 10 stars.......2007-02-08

      What is there to be said that the reviewers below have not already. As a trombonist, this is one of a handful of recordings that brings me to my knees. Fabulous playing, fabulous tone, fabulous intonation - Joe Alessi is world class. This is my favorite of his CD's, and I own them all. Trombone players: This is an essential recording.

      5 out of 5 stars Joseph Alessi.......2006-07-02


      This record is mislabeled: it is really music played by Joseph Alessi, the principal trombonist of the New York Philharmonic. You should fix that. Joe Alessi's playing is a whole level above that of any other trombonist playing now or in the past. He is the first player of his instrument to deserve to be referred to as a major artist.

      5 out of 5 stars The Ideal Trombone Sound.......1999-09-13

      Young trombonists everywhere - in my opinion, this is how a trombone should sound. Mr. Alessi has the perfect sound, the sound that every serious trombonist aims for. Though the C.D. doesn't boast a variety of music (it's predominantly 20th century American), it is all fantastic music, the best of its kind. The last track is amazing, five of the greatest trombonists around, all playing together, it's outstanding. Serious trombone students, this is a good addition to your C.D. collection. This is the sound to aim for.

        4 out of 5 stars A fine disc of beautiful music.......1999-11-01

        I agree this is a great disc but it is not perfect. All the players are exceptional performers. The repertoire is rarely recorded and very fresh. Eric Ewazen's Colchester Fantasy has become a standard in the repertoire for the idiom. This recording lacks the finesse the American Brass Quintet exudes in their reading on Summit Records. The Tilson Thomas Street Song is fabulous on this disc. The work has previously been recorded by the Empire Brass Quintet. The Previn is forgettable, and the Bernstein is rather insignificant. DiLorenzo's feature for the group, Fire Dance, is very exciting. It is deceptive in its dificulty(i.e. it isn't as hard as it sounds). The group is spectacular and the recording is great. The group does tend to get brilliant at times. That could be atested to the fact that they are all orchestral musicians. Aside from their orchestral sound, I have few complaints about the disc. I would highly suggest their previous disc simply entitiled - Brass Quintets.

        5 out of 5 stars Most Perfect Brass Quintet CD to date.......1998-11-17

        The ensemble, sound, style and intonation of this fine group belie the fact that they live in other cities. Their harmonics stack up marvelously in the open 5th to end the first section of the MTT piece, one of an impressively strong set of selections. Having not been familiar with this group, I confess to having low expectations- that is until I heard the first cut, a tour-de-force by the quintet's first trumpeter, a fine composer. It now tops my large collection of brass music as perhaps the finest example of the genre put on disc to date. Having just completed a brass CD, I know how difficult the process is. These guys are truly terrific. -Michael Moore, Tuba and Artistic Dir., Atlanta Symphony Brass Quintet President, Atlanta Brass Society, Inc.
