专辑简介

"FRENCH HORN SANS FRONTIERES is a journey through the many styles of music that I pursue and enjoy. It encompasses the century 1905-2004, meandering through jazz compositions of David Amram, Julius Watkins, Kurt Weill, Horace Silver, Hoagy Carmichael, George Gershwin, to classic fragments of Frederick Delius and Benjamin Britten, then through birdsong, horn and guitar (Don Ross), and finally Harry Nilsson and the Beatles. My chosen repertoire also features the eloquent voice of Lynn McDonald (on five songs) and Mike Murley on sax (on seven)"

"Two classical British a capella horn trios (Delius and Britten) contrast the rolling jazz horn quartet pads of the Americans Watkins and Amram (MOODS and LOBO NOCHO). These selections show some of the boundless possibilities of the ‘French’ Horn."
