Becoming Principal Bassoon of
the New York Philharmonic at the age of only twenty-three, Judith LeClair has
subsequently made over thirty-five solo appearances with the orchestra, in addition
to her activity as a recitalist and chamber musician. Her chosen mixture of
classical, romantic and modern music on this album will bring a fresh perspective
on the bassoon for many listeners.
