This is one of my favorite brass renditions of all time. HUGE fan of Adagio for Strings. Lots of different arrangements out there but this one is stellar. Moves my soul every time I hear it.
Fantastic..

A beautiful arrangement of a wonderful piece of music. Played with excellence!

Wow!

[@raymondfallon7429]

I love this group so much that even when I feel (as I do here) that the piece is played too fast, I decide that I must be wrong, because they're simply that GD good. I am a huge fan, and hope to hear you live when this craziness is over.

I get goosebumps every time I listen to this wonderful arrangement! Especially at the crescendo to 3:50 and that massive major 7 chord! Bravo for an amazing performance of one of my favourite pieces by Samuel Barber!
