oldbandguy Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 I agree that the ballads of the 21st century ARE in many ways better than ever. I think one reason is the expanded use of the front ensemble percussion. I also have to wonder, and would like to hear from some arrangers, if the switch to Bb brass has helped?

ekleve Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 You forgot to mention every Bluecoats ballad of the new millenium! Not just being a homer, I think they are extraordinarily beautiful and powerful. Kudos to Doug Thrower! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
