Composer/Artist Doug Higgins, a native Montanan, is a composer and brass player of ambient nature music. His music is intriguing and mystical, painting a portrait which 'Lively Times' says is a 'vast movie-magic panorama.' His new release, 'Montana Dreams,' produced on his own Montana Brass label, is a mindscape nature journey leading the listener from a stressful routine back to a simpler time. The album showcases his unique blend of smooth jazz and symphonic nuance. According to 'Lively Times' - "Montana Dreams is romantic and reflective, with lots of bluesy trumpet a la Mark Isham."Montana Dreams continues the development of the American tone poem characterized by its use of orchestra and jazz. Montana Dreams is fresh, imaginative and exceedingly personal, with the composer's profound appreciation of creation, matched with his artistry in performance. "I have listened to your CD several times and find the pieces to be very intriguing music, all-the-while quite beautiful, and the performance to be masterful in every way. The playing on the various trumpets is in tune and full of beauty. The piccolo trumpet is like none other that I have heard before. Congratulations on creating a highly artistic work!" Wendal Jones
