Gershwin - Ain't necessarily so - Canadian Brass - Henderson - featuring Achilles Liarmakopoulos

It ain't necessarily so - George Gershwin's famous song from his Broadway classic "Porgy and Bess."
Jazz & Broadway legend, writer Luther Henderson, arranged this work for Canadian Brass showing off the melodic and technical possibilities of the trombone. Achilles has picked up the mantel putting new-found expression and excitement into this somewhat irreverent work. And look at the concert setting! This church, the Corpus Christi Cathedral in Corpus Christi, Texas, provided the perfect setting for Achilles' musical drama!

Did Achilles get a new trombone? I remember him with the old 42B but it looks like an open wrap here. Whatever it is, it sounds awesome!!
