Demondrae's diverse musical background has brought ideas about music that are fresh and unique. He realized that there was enough music that was written either for him or with him in mind to make a recording that supported his background as well as his phenomenal music education. All five pieces on this recording have beautiful moments and are destined to become staples in the euphonium repertoire.
