Short review:
Four of the world's leading baritone players showcase their talents to considerable effect with this highly recommended recording.
Solo playing of a very high quality from each of the quartet of Rob Richardson, Helen Tyler, Katrina Marzella and Diana Herak shows just how persuasive the baritone can be as as leading voice in the right hands. Cracking stuff.
