This recording was lost over 30 years ago, and was recently located and recovered in November 2018 by Producer- Antonio Garcia.
The MP3 files that comprise this YouTube recording were transferred from an old fashioned 'home style' cassette 'reference' recording that Producer, Antonio Garcia found buried in his closet at home in Virginia. This 'Home Cassette' is the reason that there is background hiss and occasional echo that creeps into some of the sound breaks scored into some of the musical passages of this recording.
This recording effort was essentially a 'glorified' sight reading exercise. Do to professional time constraints and commitments, rehearsal time was limited to 30 minutes per arrangement. Recording time for each of the 12 arrangements was also limited to 30 minutes. One recorded run through, plus an additional 1-3 takes per track. There were three - two hour recording sessions. 4 arrangements were recorded at each of the 3 sessions.
