“My Joy,” Amy Duncan’s first CD with her band Brass Tacks, is full of surprises. More than a jazz group, this 10-piece brass-heavy ensemble (which includes two euphoniums and a tuba as well as trombones and trumpets), also explores Brazilian and Middle Eastern themes as well as funk, with a bit of free jazz thrown in for good measure. The opener, “Passarinho do Mato” is a jazz samba featuring a smashing solo by trumpeter Jessé Sadoc, and the other pieces range from the tongue-in- cheek “Roach Motel” to the quirky tribute to Thelonius Monk, “Monk Creeps In” to the tranquil bossa nova “Bossa for Borodin.”
