Reviews

  • "[David Gillingham's Summer of 2008 ...is an important addition to the literature of an instrument that has few concertos. Jason Ham is an amazing player with a big tenor-tuba tone and amazing technical skills."

    – American Record Guide

  • "The performances themselves are exemplary; the ensemble plays with fine precision and intonation, and Jason Ham is a virtuoso soloist who leaves nothing to be desired in the concerto.

    – Fanfare
