On For Now, his tenth album as leader, multi-reed specialist Brian Landrus gives voice to the many faces of romance, using as his means of expression a talented core quintet, amplified on several themes by a four-member string section, with arrangements by the notable opera composer Robert Aldridge. While Landrus plays four instruments including flute and alto flute, he sticks for the most part to baritone sax and bass clarinet, soloing on one or the other on almost every one of the session's thirteen well-drawn numbers (an exception is his seductive alto flute solo on "The Night of Change").

En For Now, su décimo álbum como líder, el especialista en múltiples cañas Brian Landrus da voz a las múltiples caras del romance, utilizando como medio de expresión un quinteto central de gran talento, amplificado en varios temas por una sección de cuerda de cuatro miembros, con arreglos del notable compositor de ópera Robert Aldridge. Aunque Landrus toca cuatro instrumentos, entre ellos la flauta y la flauta contralto, se ciñe en su mayor parte al saxo barítono y al clarinete bajo, haciendo solos con uno u otro en casi todos los trece bien dibujados números de la sesión (una excepción es su seductor solo de flauta contralto en «The Night of Change»).
