An exciting recital of works featuring the Saxophone, played by the noted exponent, Kyle Horch.
Very few saxophone chamber discs have been made. The works featured on this CD were written at the beginning of the modern saxophone's history and the programme explores how important composers of differing styles made use of the new instrument in a chamber music setting. Kyle brings together a fascinating collection of music, much of which is currently unavailable.

Koechlin's Epitaph for Jean Harlow
The exotic Quatuor by Villa Lobos for flute, alto sax harp, celeste and female voices
A fascinating Quintet by Adolf Busch, leader of the legendary Busch Quartet
Hindemith's Trio, featuring the tenor saxophone
Webern's concise Quartett

Many of the twentieth century's finest composers have written works featuring the saxophone. This CD features a programme of music which will intrigue, fascinate and bring musical pleasure to a wide range of listeners.


"The programme's protagonists transmit a true feeling of exploration... the recording reveals versatile performers who can take on the lyrical heart of German Romanticism or an exotic Brazilian Seductiveness with supreme conviction."
