Our Take

Canadian Brass and the Eastman Wind Ensemble team up to bring us "Manhattan Music," an album that takes us on a musical journey through the bustling streets of New York City. From the iconic skyscrapers to the bustling streets, this collaboration captures the vibrant energy and diversity of the city that never sleeps.

The album kicks off with the brass ensemble's bold and powerful rendition of Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue," setting the tone for the rest of the record. The Eastman Wind Ensemble shines on tracks like "Broadway Boogie Woogie," with their flawless execution and infectious energy.

Throughout the album, Canadian Brass and the Eastman Wind Ensemble showcase their impeccable musicianship and incredible versatility. From classical masterpieces to jazzy improvisations, they effortlessly transition between genres, creating a rich tapestry of sound that keeps the listener engaged from start to finish.

Standout tracks include the hauntingly beautiful "Central Park" and the lively "Times Square Tango," which perfectly capture the essence of their respective locations. The album closes with a stunning rendition of Bernstein's "West Side Story Suite," leaving the listener with a sense of awe and admiration for these talented musicians.

"Manhattan Music" is a must-listen for any music lover looking to experience the magic of New York City through the power of brass and wind instruments. Canadian Brass and the Eastman Wind Ensemble have truly outdone themselves with this captivating and enchanting album.
