[Villa Lobos] "incorporates nationalistic musical elements of Brazil along with melodic, lullaby-like themes, to make a truly contrasting and interesting three-movement work." (Classic FM) "Brazilian sonorities and rhythms are a perfect match for the saxophone" (WFMT) [Glazunov] "persistence paid off for Raschèr, who badgered Glazunov to write him a concerto. The Russian relented and the result - three short, pleasingly lyrical movements - was premiered by Raschèr" (BBC Music Magazine)
