Hi - I just stumbled upon this by accident but it was a nice reunion for me. Great to

Great beautiful sound!

@5langostinos Thanks - what an inspiring piece to play!

[remichalak]

Wow!! The kind of rich, soaring, majestic and inspirational brass sound one hopes to (but rarely gets to) experience. Thanks for the clip -- keep them coming!! Correct me if I am wrong, but this must have been a sentimental performance for you as you played in the 1996 Olympic Ceremonies for which this was written??

@remichalak Thanks - Yeah it was sentimental - the 96 Olympics were one heck of an experience, playing on the field and over television for 3 billion people. Nice to play it again with such a great sounding band!
