The five composers contributing to the musical selections of this album were each chosen through the idea of tracing the presence of composers of Jewish origin who wrote for oboe and piano in twentieth century European music. One can also find a work by Antal Dorati. His inclusion in this release is based on his statement from 1981, when he declared to be "of mixed blood, with a prevalence of Jewish blood." Thus we have the opportunity, in this context, to discover a work of intense and playful creativity: the Duo concertante for oboe and piano.
