简介

Released on May 15, 2011, this project began after former Canadian Brass trumpeter Fred Mills' untimely death in 2009, with the unique idea of asking Fred's friends, fellow musicians and former students to "donate" a track to a compilation CD. The profits from the sales of the CD would go directly to Fred's newly established scholarship fund at the University of Georgia where he had been a trumpet professor for the past decade. The artists cover a wide range of styles and instruments - From trumpets, to trombones, tubas, flugelhorns, pianos, orchestras, and both large and small brass groups. Fred had friends around the globe and they all wanted to show their love and respect for him. Thirty-six artists are represented here in this unique and loving tribute. Many of the artists recorded their tracks specifically for this tribute and as a result, the only source for hearing these is on this compilation. Represented on this collection are players from The New York Philharmonic, Chicago Symphony, Rochester Philharmonic, Boston Symphony, Bolshoi Ballet, the "President's Own" Marine Band, Hollywood recording artists, Jazz artists, GRAMMY award winners, and some of the world's finest brass groups, including the legendary Canadian Brass. This is a one-of-a-kind collection of astounding performances, all assembled out of love for Fred Mills. Whether you are a teacher, student, performer, audiophile, or just a lover of outstanding performances, this CD will bring you joy and pleasure. Fred had magnetism, talent, and stature in the music business that few others possess - traits which have inspired this diverse group of players to come together for this musical tribute. 100% of the profits from sales of this double CD benefit the W. Fred Mills Scholarship Fund at the University of Georgia, Athens, GA, USA
