CD Reviews

Superb
Meír DeVilna | New Rochelle, NY | 10/16/2008
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I only heard the Gershwin and Bernstein Suites.

I was so taken with the extraordinary / superb

arrangements, that surpass even the original scores,

that I confidently feel, both composers would

second me and aplaud these Eroica Trio renditions

as well.

"
Unusual sound for familiar pieces
Christopher Kell | New York | 01/06/2009
(5 out of 5 stars)

"The trio does a pleasant job of playing primarily American musical theater pieces in their genre. I heard this first on the radio and was won over enough to buy it myself."
