Jerome Naulais’ Flash is a musical gem for brass trio, featuring quick runs and sweeping melodies combined with special effects to add colour and excitement.

Eugene Bozza’s Shepherds of Provence is a showpiece for the oboe and English horn taking listeners to the French countryside with pastoral scenes, a night under the stars and a village dance.

Ravel’s String Quartet in F is an early work often considered his first masterpiece. This passionate and beautiful quartet demonstrates Ravel’s brilliant juxtaposition of formality and sensuality, and his incredible use of tone color.
