4.0 out of 5 stars Not a military band - beautifully and faithfully played, 11 Jul 2001
By A Customer
Perhaps the only clue from the web site that this album is played by a 'military band' is the pictures of the cover.

Had I paid more attention I might not have bought it - fearing that it was going to a military brass band playing special arrangements. Those fears were dispelled when I played the CD. The soloists play the pieces beautifully and without any trace of martial yeal.

The particular tracks that I wanted - The Ashokan Farewell - theme to the American Civil War TV Series, and Gabriels Oboe were all that you'd want.

1.0 out of 5 stars Oh dear - beware immitations, 31 Jul 2004
By A Customer
Big fan of the Ashokan farewell which was the title music to the Ken Burns documentary - The Civil War. Was v disappointed with the rendition on this CD which was to me rather bland - my recommendation if you like the ashokan farewell - get the soundtrack CD 'the civil war'

5.0 out of 5 stars beautiful music, 6 Feb 2009
By M. Brown - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I got this cd on sale simply because I love the song "Ashokan Farewell." I wasn't sure what the cd would actually be like, but I wasn't disappointed. The performance on this cd is superb... not just for Ashokan Farewell, but also the rest of the songs on the cd. I was really glad that I bought it!
