Skalkottas - Aho - Strauss

Great disc from MD&G, featuring Oboe Concertos by Nikos Skalkottas (a Concertino) and Richard Strauss. The Strauss is ubiquitous while the Skalkottas is basically unknown. We also get music for Oboe and Cello "Seven Inventions w. Postlude" by Kalevi Aho. Enjoy.

Thanks for commenting as always friend. Indeed music is rather "endless", there's oceans of bad music out there yet there's a whole universe of beauty, waiting to be discovered, cherished, shared. I cannot even begin to imagine for example how much Soviet/Russian music is out there thus far unpublished/overlooked by composers whose names we don't know..so many composers fall into obscurity and somehow others stay completely unknown, their scores sitting collecting dust..
