Bassoon Collection CD SAR 35
This extraordinary collection of bassoon music is well summed up by the specialist Bassoon Record Reviews website: 'Amon Ra is one of my [Philip Gottling's] favourite record labels. Everything about them, from their hieroglyphic logo to their Monty Python-esque address, conjures up a wonderful, madcap image. Frances Eustace, one of London's busiest early bassoon players, shows her stuff on no less than seven instruments in this collection… Eustace is quite a performer, and every one of these pieces is memorable. She even lets us hear the Elgar the way it might have sounded when Edwin James, to whom it was dedicated, played it on his Savary. Eustace favors a light sound on all the instruments heard here, with the exception of the sepulchral contra. She handles the technical demands and inevitable intonation quirks of seven instruments pretty well, and the handsome program book is full of photos of the instruments.'
