    "Eric Crees is one of the greatest arrangers for brass music in the world. I do many concerts around the world and I always insist on doing Eric's arrangements wherever I go. There simply is no better transcriber for brass than Eric Crees."
    Jay Friedman, Principal Trombone, Chicago Symphony Orchestra, Conductor

    "... transcribed from original works for organ ... displays wonderful technical passages as well as sensitive lyric playing. It is worth mentioning that the added percussion... sounds tasteful, while contributing great impact to the work and create a natural extension of the music."
