Yes!  Like the title says, this is high impact all the way!  It's dazzling jazz rock that has the contemporary sound reminiscent of the music of Bill Chase.  The brasses get a good workout, but it's worth every note.  The guitar solo (also cued in the keyboard) is written in A to let the guitarist solo in a comfortable key.  An excellent choice for festival and contest!  Highly recommended! Includes CD recording.
