CDs of the Nederlands Blazers Ensemble (Dutch Winds Ensemble), Praise the Twilight Sparrow and the band Tierra.
Nederlands Blazers Ensemble (Dutch Winds Ensemble) and Accordone.
In 2002 the Nederlands Blazers Ensemble started to take off with Una Odissea, an Italian composition of composer and harpsichord player Guido Morini on the lyrics of singer Marco Beasley. The central theme is man in battle with his environment, capable of self-sacrificing love as well as full destructive hate, which – in this case – can lead to war.
