(4 out of 5 stars)

"Jeffrey Rathbun has released a CD of rarely heard modern works for oboe which give the listener an inkling of the wide range of colors and styles available to the instrument now. Malcolm Arnold's lovely Sonatina is the most traditionally tuneful work on the disk. Other works growl and snarl in a way not often associated with the pastoral oboe.Ussachevsky is an American composer mostly known for his electronic sounds, so it is wonderful to hear the blues influenced Triskelion on this disk. Rathbun's completely effortless performances throughout but particularly on the gargantuan Koechlin Sonata make this disc a must for lovers of great oboe playing."
