A compelling collection of works for oboe and piano composed by Polish composers during the first decade after World War II. Neoclassicism-marked by clarity of form, inventive harmonies, economical means of expression, and frequent folk-inspired elements-meets virtuosity, wit, touches of the grotesque, and moments of neo-romantic lyricism. In most of these pieces, the piano stands as an equal partner to the oboe, engaging in a brilliant, dynamic dialogue. This interplay comes vividly to life in the performances of Justyna Stanek, principal oboist of the NFM Orchestra, and Monika Kruk-outstanding chamber musicians affiliated with the Wroclaw Academy of Music.
