"This ensemble plays both with precision and bravura. It successfully exploits the rich sonorities and full color pallate of the brass band through performances of a good, representative sample of the genre. The recording quality is quite good. I highly recommend the recording."

"The University of Michigan Symphony Band is obviously a talented and disciplined group. The precision of the rhythms and the imaginative interpretation of these marches jumps right off the CD. This is a truly professional recording and a great example of what well-played marches sound like."
Excellect production of military marches.

"This digitally recorded CD has sparkling, crisp sound. The band numbers are well chosen and stirs up military visions of bygone formations and parades. I rate this recording as one of the best I have heard in the past twenty years. I was shocked at the most reasonable price and the high quality of the recording. An excellent buy!"
Good band music CD but short on time

"This is a good-quality wind band CD, but be aware that it is rather short, with a total time of only 39:20."
