 Notes & Reviews Back to Top 
Roxburgh is himself a virtuoso oboist and, as Christopher Redgate explains in the booklet, ideally placed to exploit the innovations in playing technique that the instruments has seen in the past half-century. Most notable is multiphonics, or playing more than note at once, and they make an early appearance in the fourth of these stylishly performed seven works, Eclissi, for oboe, violin, viola and cello. Antares, for oboe and piano, is full of such slightly sour sounds, but Roxburgh never substitutes trickery for musicality, and the eloquent recent solo Study 1 (a competition piece), and the much earlier Aulodie, for oboe/oboe d’amore and piano) have an admirable lyric purity. -- Paul Driver, Sunday Times
