Joseph Robinson of The Double Reed says of Elaine Douvas in this recording: Eschewing overt expression in favor of implication and subtlety, she offers performances that are stylish and full of passion and conviction to be sure, but which, like all great art, withstand and reward the most careful scrutiny. Expert phrasing and articulation by Elaine Douvas in this album demonstrate persuasively that the pieces she has chosen are sufficient to challenge the finest player's imagination, discipline and instrumental skill. This album is a delight for any oboist and again contains a rich collection of music from many periods, from Telemann to Hindemith. Includes sheet music printed on high-quality ivory paper, annotated with performance suggestions and a compact disc with complete versions (with soloist) followed by piano accompaniments to each piece, minus the soloist. Soloist: Elaine Douvas, oboe. Ensemble: Erik Nielsen, piano.

Racconto (Tale)/ Capri/ Cielo sereno (Clear sky)/ Tano/ Napolitango/ Luci della spiaggia (Beach lights)/ Fantasia mediterranea (Mediterranean fantasy)/ Una lacrima ridente (A smiling tear)/ Quartieri spagnoli/ Marcia dei pomodori (March of the tomatos)Being interested in certain aspects of popular music, I became aware of several similarities between popular Neapolitan melodies and the Argentinean tango. Napolitango is based on an imaginary journey to Naples and Buenos Aires. In retaining certain characteristics of the original music, Napolitango embodies an inspiration and an almost theatrically passionate character which is common to these two genres.The piece has been composed for the Parisian Festival Paris Banlieues Tango 2001.(S.

Composed in 1957, Concerto for Oboe is an alternative, exciting concerto made up of three movements; 1) Animated, 2) With Serenity, and 3) Animated.

“French oboist, Henri Brod (1799-1839) was a performer, composer and instrument builder during the early Romantic era. Considered a virtuoso, Brod's compilation, Studies and Sonatas for Oboe is very well-informed. Brod introduced his own innovations in Oboe design and playing techniques, both which are still used to this day. The first volume of Studies and Sonatas for Oboe comprises 40 easy studies and 6 progressive sonatas for beginner to intermediate level oboists. These are in a variety of keys and address features, including different rhythms, scales, breath control, phrasing, articulation, ornamentation, accidentals, simple and compound time signatures, range, performance directions, and dynamics, among other aspects. Brod's wealth of experience and expertise which enabled the composition of Studies and Sonatas for Oboe make it an essential purchase for aspiring players of the instrument.â€.
