CD Reviews

A Leading Flutist of Her Generation
Julia B. Clayton | Lyndhurst, NJ, USA | 03/23/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This CD is one that has become the favorite of my collection -- how lucky to share a last name with this artist! I believe I have not heard better technical sound reproduction -- and what music! The very soul of the French flute sound is here with incredible variety of color, shading, dynamics -- with expert and truly sensitive ensemble playing to thrill any listener. Particularly, those knowledgeable in flute music can deeply appreciate the technical and artistic abilities of this young musician and her extremely capable collaborators. The Lasser piece is an excellent new piece that should become a standard part of the flute repertoire. I am eagerly awaiting another production by this wonderful new flutist."
Amazing Flute Player

(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is truly some of the best flute playing I have ever heard. Ms. Clayton has such a gift. All of the tracks are great to listen to. I have been listening to it in the CD player of my car for a week straight and am still not tired of it. A great buy! I would recommed it wholeheartedly to anyone."
