about

The great fascination of the Talking Horns is the way they unfold their imaginative musical microcosm without the use of "special effects": no rhythm backup, no electronics, no amplifiers.

Through constant role reversals (such as when the saxophone plays the baseline to a tuba solo) the Talking Horns achieve a musical density almost orchestral in scope - you can almost see a big band if you just close your eyes …
