This outstanding collection of internationally renowned wind players, joined by CMS favorite Anne-Marie McDermott, offers ensemble classics from the 18th through the 20th centuries. All the instruments gather for Poulenc’s effervescent Sextet, which he described as “an homage to the wind instruments I have loved from the moment I began composing.”
