This is one of the few cds that I have enjoyed listening for many hours. The Chicago sound is so spectacular and powerfull that it can shock you like in works as Carter´s Variations for Orchestra, one of the finest and easy listening works of his catalogue, or Spectra composed by Günther Schuller. Enjoy!
