Russia: The Tradition Of Wind Instruments

Ocora's album of Russian music for wind instruments features Boris Efremov leading the Moscow Chorus of Horn Players and the Folk Ensemble Ulitsa in a fascinating survey of the genre. The basic focus of their activity is the revival of Russian traditions from the 18th and 19th centuries, especially those of wind instruments -- such as horn, overtone flute, panpipes, vertical flute, shepherds' trumpet -- and violion or balalaika."
