Notes & Reviews:

William Bennett is one of the finest flautists of the present day - and on this disc, he is in excellent company with some leading chamber-music soloists. The music recorded here spans more than 30 years of Villa-Lobos' career and various styles, but it is always distinctly Brazzilian.

'A disc of pure delight from beginning to end. Another example of why Hyperion gets my vote as the most innovative record label. Full marks!' (Which CD)

'A disc of outstanding artistry' (The Good CD Guide)

'[A] box-full of ingenious vitality' (BBC Music Magazine)
