Montana Dreams
CD and DVD
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. Each piece is extended, stretched out, and evokes many emotions. "Montana
Dreams" is romantic and reflective, with lots of muted, bluesy trumpet a la
Mark Isham.
The album showcases Doug's unique blend of smooth jazz and symphonic nuance. Doug underpins
the whole effort with his masterful playing on many horns - flugelhorn, trumpet
and French horn among them.

The DVD version of Montana Dreams combines the photographs taken by Janet Higgins and historic photos with the Doug's music.
