Takes Flight

The Canadian Brass are back with a vengeance, a new album and an 80% new line-up. Founding member and tuba player extraordinaire Chuck Daellenbach has surrounded himself with a fresh crop of brilliant brass players. All brand new recordings, with many of the selections considered the Greatest Hits of the Brass. The new arrangement of The Flight of the Bumblebee by trumpeter Brandon Ridenour will leave you awe-struck! Takes Flight is a splendid mix of music that glances back at the group's legacy and sets their sights firmly on what lays ahead - wonderful music, amazing concerts and a continued dedication to their audience.
