Notes & Reviews:

"This recording, the first by brass of the complete Art of Fugue, is magnificent from several standpoints. It is an extended example of first-rate playing, with beautiful tone qualities, impeccable intonation, and polished execution of difficult music...Dynamics range from ethereal softs to blistering louds. The screaming climaxes are a bit much for my taste, but they certainly convey a sense of culmination..." -Kilpatrick, ARG
