Title: Great oboe concerto disc
Review: These pieces are all standard repertoire for the oboe and are all charmingly played. Derek Wickens plays the Vivaldi, Marcello and Haydn and Douglas Boyd plays the Mozart. Derek Wickens is elegant in his playing with a finely focused sweet sound, while Douglas Boyd is perhaps a tad more robust. Their playing is typical of the generation of English players who hit their stride in the 80s and 90s - the sound being a little less "English" than their predecessors. A nice disc to own. You will not be disappointed.
