Toronto-based oboist Lawrence Cherney is heard here in six Canadian works, all involving some form of electronic accompaniment and many commissioned or premiered by him.
“Each piece is sensationally recorded – Ahoy audiophiles! Fresh as a Tibetan mountain and often as mystical, the disc amounts to one of the finest recordings of truly modern music of the past 30 years. Should you find a copy in your local record shop, grab it!” – Heuwell Tircuit, InTune (Japan)
“It’s a user-friendly recording, and enough to give the lie to anyone who thinks modern music is necessarily difficult to listen to.” – Martin Anderson, Fanfare
PERFORMERS:
Lawrence Cherney: oboe/hautbois, oboe d’amore/hautbois d’amour, and English horn/et cor anglais.
Sergio Barroso, digital keyboard/clavier numérique.
