ROMANCE & CAPRICE

Works for Solo Bassoon and Piano

 

FRANK MORELLI, bassoon

GILBERT KALISH, piano

$10.00

"Morelli's sensitive, robust and warm sound, and Gilbert Kalish's very fine piano breathe life and passion into these works. This is music that holds appeal to a wider audience than bassoonists or wind afficionados. I think while we wait for Frank Morelli to make another record we can all thoroughly enjoy this one.
