The reviewers say:

World of Brass
"This recording offers an extraordinary breadth of style and performance. The soloist, who is probably best known in the UK as a former lead trumpet in the world famous Canadian Brass, is extremely well supported by The Canadian Staff Band of The Salvation Army, under the direction of Staff Bandmaster Kevin Hayward, throughout the recording." - Ken Ashman


The Wholenote
"Ever wonder what would happen if you took a virtuoso trumpet soloist, added an excellent brass band, and then through one of the best big band/jazz drummers into the mix? You can try and imagine it, or you can just buy this CD and find out!

Lindemann...has the ability to play with a wonderful classical sound, while still having access to the fiery tone necessary for the showpieces on this CD.

The members of the Canadian Staff Band play superbly. The balance between soloist and ensemble is perfect, and the sonorities are wonderfully round and solid... The ensemble sound is absolutely majestic.

This is a great disc, with a very wide range of material... Very highly recommended!" - Merlin Williams
