Product Description
Pan Magazine, Journal of the British Flute Society (Joanna Todd)
The whole CD shows a mature approach to this music and the resulting interpretation is both articulate and exciting.
Staffordshire Evening Sentinel
Tucker's new album "Concerti" shows Bach's great forerunner at his brightest and best.

The ebb and flow of the music is fantastic! One can sense the change of the seasons and feel the strength of the storm. Night comes and one knows its comforts. Spring returns with the birds!
Beautiful and beautifully done. Nothing but enjoyment for all. The artist is skillful in his playing and his interpretations are meaningful. The listener is wrapped in the music as Mark Turner skilling blends his music with his amazing abilities. One knows he contributes much of himself as the music is articulated.
It is worth AT LEAST a 5-star rating!

Who would have thought that Vivaldi's masterpiece 'The Four Seasons' would work so well on the flute. Mark Tucker's transcription of these exciting concerti sounds as if it comes directly from the master's pen. What a clever idea to combine this four concerti with the other three beauties. I have not taken this out of my CD player yet for more than a couple of hours....

After hearing Mark Tucker being interviewed on BBC radio and talking about his new album, I rushed down to my nearest record shop and bought this breathtaking album. How he manages to play all those notes in the Four Seasons, I do not know but they are played in a beatiful, lyrical, singing manner with the grace and respect that Vivaldi deserves. I am eagerly awaiting the release of his next CD. Oh, and the English Ensemble accompany him superbly. Look out for Mark Tucker in the future, I am sure he will be everywhere!

Refreshingly Baroque
How refreshing to hear Vivaldi played on a modern concert flute and still end up sounding Baroque. These concertos are intelligently played by both Mark Tucker and The English... Read more
