"Charles Fitts is a truly gifted composer. It will only take one listen of his Circus Concerto for Trumpet & Orchestra for the listener to be completely assured of his talent. I have recorded and performed well over 1,000 new works by living composers. Few are of the caliber of Charles Fitts’ Circus Concerto.”
