AMERICAN RECORD GUIDE REVIEW

“Side by side with the Debussy Syrinx, the Ibert Entr’acte, the Satie Gymnopedies, and the Faure Berceuse, there are fascinating nuggets by Francis Kleynjans and Louis Moyse...Oooh-la-la!”

“...rich tone...velvety engineering.”

“...four delicious tidbits by Kleynjans (the arias especially) and the charming three-movement Moyse Cantos. The final allegro of the Moyse, in particular, shows what LaPorte can do.”

MUSIC WEB INTERNATIONAL

“This disc contains some charming French repertoire for flute and guitar. ...the scene is set for a Parisian adventure.”

“...the two instruments form a well balanced ensemble.”

"Pièce is for solo flute, and demonstrated LaPorte’s enjoyable sound."

"Saulter’s guitar is always enjoyable and he makes an excellent duo partner."

"Saulter gives a convincing guitar solo with a good sense of pacing and changes of colour in the sound."

"Satie’s Trois Gymnopédies are played with a lovely sense of Romanticism and the first in particular has the feeling of daydreams. The duo plays well together and their individual sonorities come together convincingly. LaPorte’s tone is particularly enjoyable here, and she does not over-use vibrato in the way that flute players sometimes do. The guitar is sensitive in its accompaniment throughout and there is a well-judged balance between the instrument’s treble and bass."
