5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful performances of terrific music, 28 Feb 2004
This review is from: L'Album des Six: The Complete Works for Flute and Piano (Audio CD)
There are some great performances here of well-known flute pieces like Honegger's Danse de la Chevre and Poulenc's Sonata for Flute and Piano, but the other tracks are also enjoyable. It is interesting to have all of the compositions of Les Six for flute solo and flute and piano on one CD.

The artists may not be household names yet, but the performances are top class.

5.0 out of 5 stars A **real** female Welsh classical artist for our time :), 13 Jun 2001
By G.C. - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: L'Album des Six: The Complete Works for Flute and Piano (Audio CD)
This is a terrific CD for fans of French flute music, from the six composers dubbed "Les Six" in the 1920's. All of their individual chamber pieces for flute are featured, scored variously for flute and piano or for solo flute, in addition to a suite for solo piano where all six of them contributed movements and whose title is that of the CD. Emily Beynon is the young (30-something) Welsh-born principal flutist of the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, Amsterdam, and plays excellently on this CD. Andrew West is a splendid accompanist, and shines in his own right in the solo piano suite. The production and notes are up to Hyperion's usual high standard. It is best to listen to this music in relatively small doses rather than all at once. Having said that, enjoy!

We found the album enjoyable to listen to sequentially.
