5.0 out of 5 stars American Record Guide, 1995, June 14, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Premiere Chamber Works (Audio CD)

-a superlative program of new music for an ancient double reed, beautifully performed by Sara Lambert Bloom and friends.-a very welcome group of eight first recordings and it's all just music (thank goodness) with lots of lively ideas and inventive instrumental combinations superbly performed. Theopening of Harbison's Concerto for oboe, clarinet and strings-a substantial work by one of America's best living composers-is unforgettable. Even better is the long-lined, melismatic lyricism of the central Larghetto which lingers in the memory as the highest high point. The American Record Guide September/October, 1995
