O’s Notes: This is a brassy ensemble and the horns are rich, blending tones with rich harmonies on tunes like “HipNotHop” and “Shimmer”. There are sweet melodies on “The Midnight Sun Will Never Set” featuring Joe Carello on sax. We liked this set for variety and content. They even added a cool arrangement of “Get Smart”.
