Reviews
Rhythm Music Magazine, a journal of international
folk music, characterizes the album as "striking...inspired." The Brass Bulletin, published in Switzerland, describes
the CD as "Charming." It has also been reviewed
positively by journals of the North American Brass Band
Association, International Trumpet Guild, the
Historic Brass Society, and Dirty Linen
- a folk music magazine.
The Global Village label specializes in recordings of ethnic
and folk music produced in the United States. In addition
to the Ameriikan Poijat recording, their catalogue includes
a large selection of Jewish Klezmer music, Black American
Gospel music, and recordings of immigrant music with Yugoslavian,
Italian, and Afro-Cuban roots. Re-releases of early jazz recordings
are also well represented. Global Village distribution is
throughout North and South America, Europe, and Japan. The
Ameriikan Poijat CD is available nationally at Tower records,
Our band sheet music is also available for purchase:
Four Finnish Dances: a
Polka, Waltz, Tango, and Humppa suite, scored for traditional
brass septet, with alternate parts for instruments in C, F, E-flat, or
B-flat- making this music playable by most combinations of mixed wind instruments. Four more titles will be released in August 2009!!
