"The CD introduces Jennifer Paull's group of oboists, The Amoris Consort....This is all 20th century music but very approachable. Edwin Carr's portrait of Waiheke Island, where he lives near Auckland, is cleverly written for this ensemble. Leonard Salzedo's inventive Sonata a Tré and his arrangement of Mátyás Seiber's Leichte Tänze are no less strikingly inventive, the latter using the musette to great effect."
...Gordon Hunt, Principal oboe, Philharmonia Orchestra, London (British Double Reed Society magazine Double Reed News, No. 41, Winter Edition 1997)

Lovely Stuff
author: Terrence McCarthy
If you like music for oboe or even think you might, get this CD. Cheaper than 4 extrava-lattes at Starbucks and much better for one's body, mind & soul. Truly musical music encompassing the entire oboe family. Won't hear this everyday - what are you waiting for?
