Our Take

The latest offering from the iconic CANADIAN BRASS, "Schumann/Carnaval" is a delightful romp through the whimsical world of German composer Robert Schumann. Known for their innovative interpretations of classical music, the ensemble brings a fresh and modern twist to Schumann's timeless compositions.

From the opening notes of "Pierrot," the listener is immediately transported to a carnival-like atmosphere, filled with vibrant energy and playful melodies. The brass instrumentation adds a unique depth and richness to Schumann's music, breathing new life into these celebrated pieces.

Standout tracks include the lively "Pantalon et Colombine," where the CANADIAN BRASS showcases their impeccable technique and virtuosic skill. The interplay between the different brass instruments is truly captivating, creating a dynamic and engaging listening experience.

However, not every track hits the mark, with some moments feeling slightly lacklustre and uninspired. The ensemble occasionally veers into cliché territory, relying too heavily on familiar tropes and patterns.

Overall, "Schumann/Carnaval" is a bold and ambitious effort from CANADIAN BRASS, showcasing their unparalleled talent and passion for classical music. While not without its flaws, this album is a testament to the enduring power of Schumann's music and the boundless creativity of the CANADIAN BRASS. Grab your top hat and join the party - it's a carnival you won't want to miss!
