Professionally recorded and produced, the CD suits all and includes swing, Latin, ballad and funk, and includes five popular big band vocals.

WYJO’s musical director Ian Hattersley commenting on the CD’s success: “It’s been a personal labour of love producing the CD. Sourcing musical material and the many studio recordings needed to get just the right mix and WYJO sound has been amazing. On behalf of WYJO I would personally like to thank everyone who has helped make this CD possible.”

All profits from the CD’s sale will go to fund WYJO's proposed South of France tour next year. Hitting the right note with many, The Horn Ultimatum has already featured on local radio, with sales proving very popular amongst jazz lovers across the region.
