BACKGROUND
This selection looks at the power of woodwind, whether providing a beautifully fragile underpinning to Yacoub's song, the eerie and hyperkinetic rush of Chalkias' clarinet or the lighter-than-air Andean drive of the Quenas in the final track.

All three cannot be listened to without the woodwind forcing you to become totally envolved emotionally with the music, and all three will be firmly lodged in you head long after they have stopped playing.
