The Keystone Wind Ensemble performing digital premiers by Hanson, Persichetti, Melillo, Camphouse, Tull and Stamp. 20-bit recording!
Citadel recordings were recorded with minimal mikes and special equipment by noted engineer Bruce Leek and are performed by The Keystone Wind Ensemble, conducted by Jack Stamp.
