The title Magnum Opus has always referred to the largest or greatest work of a particular artist. For Rex Richardson, this recording represents his entire evolution as an interpreter of new music and as a composer. Featuring the work of some of his favorite collaborators, the recording demonstrates how a traditional form - the classical concerto - can continually be injected with new life.
"Amazing. Inspiring. Magnum Opus is full of suprises, a delightful musical adventure. Rex Richardson's incredible stylistic diversity, intense musicality and fiery techinique are second to none." - Allen Vizzuti, International Trumpet Soloist and Jazz Artist
