Editorial Review:
The four composers represented here have produced a panoply of sound in infinite variety, magnificently recorded by Marc Aubort and Joanna Nickrenz. These two CDs are a hi-fi fan's delight. Kim Kashkashian partners with Robert Levin in Meyer Kupferman's Beauty and the Beast in an all-out display of musicianship and power, Paige Brook's sonic reach spans the four instruments of the flute family from the highest to the lowest in Iain Hamilton's Sonata for Flautist, composer Alvin Brehm takes the bass part in his own Sextet, inspired by Alban Berg's Lyric Suite, Ezra Laderman has the benefit of Timothy Eddy for 'cello on his Partita for Solo 'Cello and Iain Hamilton's great musicality and skill is heard in his writing for a very wide selection of instruments in original and fascinating combinations.
