CSO Low Brass Section plays Orchestral Excerpts and Concert Works Full Album (part 1)

Thanks for this

My childhood heroes, and they still are, the very best brass section that ever existed!❤️😍

This is truly something else!

No euphonium? 😥

Listen to nothing but this for a week and see if your playing doesn’t open up tenfold,

No rehearsal???? So the stagger breathing must’ve been a well-worked habit for them. Unreal!

They done purty good fer midwestern hilljacks.

The gold standard brass performance in 1971, yet still a desert island disc. JF admitted to superior recordings' quality in years following.

I wore this record out when I was young.

The end of Tannhauser is like being in brass heaven. Wonderful and probably the finest section ever assembled. Thank you so very much! Just sublime.

Unfortunately no conductor in the world would take it at that tempo.

nice

They have the bright brash sound but I prefer the darker mellower sound of the Vienna lower brass......

True legends

epic doesn´t describe what they are doing : recorded without rehersals and by memory.....

Great

Is this on iTunes???

These are the greatest low brass players to ever live. One day I want to be in that section. They are better than players in Asia to be honest.

Speechless

The legendary low brass organ of the CSO. Best low brass section to ever exist.

Trying to play the Faust on a Bb tuba....help😥

Those overtones!! Wow

Are these recordings sold as CD's by any chance?

So glad to find this, after listening to my "copy of a copy" cassette.  Let's hear it for the men in the back row!

You don't hear trombone sections like this these days....I am sure there are some, but these guys are Legendary in the brass world. =)

Magnificent!  Thank you SO MUCH for posting this!  Been looking for this since hearing excepts in an old Arnold Jacobs interview back in my college days (mid 80s)!  Thanks again!

Great stuff

Unfortunately, another member of this section passed away yesterday, Nov. 30th 2013.  RIP, Ed Kleinhammer.

Is there an alto trombone in the last excerpt?

Do you have a planets recording with the same players?
