“What a relief...to encounter a player of such breathtaking quality as Judith LeClair” Julian Haylock, Classic CD
“What an amazing sound... Judith produces many of the qualities normally only heard on the French style instrument and combines an amazing technique and great musicianship.” Norman Smale
Becoming Principal Bassoon of the New York Philharmonic at the age of only twenty-three, Judith LeClair has subsequently made over thirty-five solo appearances with the orchestra, in addition to her activity as a recitalist and chamber musician. Her chosen mixture of classical, romantic and modern music on this album will bring a fresh perspective on the bassoon for many listeners.
