“WOW! This just sounds tremendous! Jim is a former colleague in the Pacific Symphony (1998-99 season). I have known for some time what a great trombonist, musician and good guy he is. That said, this exceeds my already high expectations. Speaking as someone who has performed on a variety of low brass instruments, it’s bad enough he plays alto, tenor, bass and contrabass (very nice, BTW), but soprano?! Come on man! And . . . the charts are dynamite! (I’m running out of exclamation points!) Bravo Jim!”
