This collaboration between the American Horn Quartet and the New York Philharmonic horn section marks a milestone in horn ensemble performnce. The disc combines virtuoso showstoppers like Warren Deck's arrangement of the Overture to Candide with more musically ambitious repertoire, like Eric Erwazen's Grand Canyon Suite. Several of the pieces heard here are original compositions or arrangements made especially for this album.
