My band, The Atlantic Brass Band, just took advantage of the holiday break to record a new Christmas CD. It seemed to be the perfect time to record. We have just finished playing all of our holiday concerts, so all of the music was fresh in our minds and since many of the members of the band are teachers, many of us were on break. We'll get the CD out well in time for the next holiday season, and I can't wait!
We recorded for about 15 hours in one weekend for the CD, which was great fun since I was (and still am) getting over the horrible flu that has just swept through. Regardless, we had some fun, especially during our breaks, and I wanted to share some of the photos from the recording experience. I'll let everyone know when the CD comes out!

The euphonium/baritone row took advantage of some time off to take some photos together.

Are all percussionists this into mallets!?
I absolutely love this photo. Anita, one of our cornet players, took this during a break. I'm on the far right of the photo.
