"Every inflection tells, the balance of sound is exact, and the sound seductive in the best traditions of glamorous 20th century orchestral writing." - Paul Driver, The Sunday Times"Music for Wind" on CD presents an exquisite collection of works for wind instruments, interpreted with chamber-musical precision and emotional depth.
