Info for Christmas

Buzz Brass erweckt Träume mit diesem neuen Werk, Christmas. Das Quintett entführt den Zuhörer mit seinen majestätischen, eleganten und raffinierten Arrangements aus dem Gewohnten, um die Weihnachtszeit zu unterstreichen. Das Männergesangsquartett Quartom tritt als Gastkünstler in Noël canadien und The 12 days of Christmas auf. Das letzte Album des Ensembles, Inspirations, wurde bereits von der renommierten Zeitschrift Gramophone als Beweis für den »sensationellen Ansatz des Ensembles« gewürdigt.
