Jennifer Paull…has had a love affair with the oboe d'amore for much of her life…This set of three records cuts a swathe through the repertoire, particularly highlighting pieces she has commissioned to swell a rather lean repertoire of music for oboe d'amore and piano.
Jennifer Paull gives sparkling performances… as an A-Z display of the oboe d'amore's glorious qualities…
I do believe that without Jennifer Paull 's exceptional efforts to restore this lovely instrument to general use, we would find it languishing in some musicological backwater.

Jennifer Paull truly is a star...That she is also a scholar of this music is evident… Paull's ornamentation is at once graceful, tasteful and sometimes virtuosic ...entertainment for the mind as well as the feet.
