Album Description
"The music is extremely appealing, superbly crafted and warmly expressive ... I thoroughly enjoyed this generously filled, superbly played, and well recorded release. Why is music such as this not heard more often, let alone recorded? Where would we be without all these smaller, independent, and enterprising labels who bravely record unfamiliar, but generously rewarding repertoire? In short, full marks to all concerned. A really lovely disc to be enjoyed from first to last." -- MUSIC ON THE WEB Ferenc Farkas (1905-2000) was one of the wave of Hungarian nationalist composers which began with the rise of BAla BartAk and ZoltAn KodAly. His Old Hungarian Dances of the 17th Century have become a staple of the wind-quintet repertoire; the other five works here display the same irrepressible joie de vivre.
