The Music Of Ezra Laderman, Vol. 8
David Shifrin (clarinet), Ransom Wilson (flute), Cassatt String Quartet, Yale Philharmonia Orchestra, strings section
Two internationally renowned soloists, David Shifrin and Ransom Wilson, are featured in this eighth volume of Albany Records' series devoted to the music of Ezra Laderman. Laderman remarks: "I have been among those who move from writing for orchestra to chamber music, to vocal, and solo and operatic works -- feeling the need to explore and stretch my musical language as I go -- to reach for a new constellation. My most recent works for flute and clarinet attest to that and this cd clearly shows the path I have traveled."

Reviews
- “
"This recording provides a fine snapshot of Ezra Laderman's highly distilled art. The two wind-players are not merely beyond reproach, but are eloquent advocates."
- “
"Every composer, of course, needs good performers to do their works justice, and here Laderman has some of the best. Wilson and Shifrin tackle the music with supreme professionalism, technical assurance, and artistic commitment; and the Cassatt Quartet and Yale Philharmonia transcend their accompanimental roles to become equal partners in the music making."
