Synopsis

Album Description

"Mordechai Rechtman is the ideal advocate of his own musicological efforts, always stylish and graceful." -- MusicWeb International Meridian Records is proud to announce the release of the final volume of "masterpiece arrangements" by the acclaimed Israel Woodwind Quintet. The last release in the series is a culmination of well-known pieces by Ludwig Van Beethoven. Pre-20th-century repertoire for woodwind quintet is rare and often not of the highest quality, so excellent arrangements of masterpieces from earlier centuries by scholar-musicians of the highest caliber are crucial.
