Arranged throughout by Luther Henderson ? one of Broadway's most celebrated orchestrators ? the album reimagines 16 New Orleans jazz and ragtime standards for brass quintet, performed on the ensemble's signature hand-crafted, 24-carat gold-plated instruments. The Canadian Brass ? Charles Daellenbach (tuba), Frederic Mills (trumpet), David Ohanian (horn), Ronald Romm (trumpet), and Eugene Watts (trombone), with Marty Morell on percussion ? brings the heat of Storyville to the concert hall. The program draws heavily from Jelly Roll Morton, Scott Joplin, and traditional New Orleans repertoire, including Black Bottom Stomp, King Porter Stomp, Maple Leaf Rag, and 12th Street Rag. Recorded at the Church of St Mary Magdalene in Toronto in May 1991, the album showcases the quintet's ability to swing hard while maintaining the precise ensemble blend that made them one of the most recognized chamber brass groups in the world.
