AUGUST REUSS:
Octet in B major, Op. 37 (1918) – WORLD PREMIERE RECORDING
(for two oboes, two clarinets, two horns, two bassoons)
“nice timbral contrasts… the scale of this music [Reuss Octet] and the breadth of the sound evoke the sweeping phrases and drama of Strauss. These three pieces are really lovely” [Schwartz, AMERICAN RECORD GUIDE]
“fine security of ensemble with appealing timbre. The sound is bright, impressively detailed and well-balanced…well performed and recorded.” [Michael Cookson, MUSICWEB INTERNATIONAL]
