Composer-arranger Wayne Alpern has put together a unique five piece group of all brass players called The times Square Brass Quintet. The music is impressively conceived and played with exacting skill and astounding togetherness. Most of the session is devoted to Alpern's original compositions and his classical chops are right on target. But you'll also her the quintet on standards like “The Lady Is A Tramp”, “Have You Met Miss Jones”, and even the ancient “I Don't Want To Set The World On Fire”. Between the classical connections and the jazz joy, this is an adventure in something new and fresh.
