Description: Krcek gets the lion's share of the program since the oboist is his wife but everything here is very tonal and quite attractive, his Concerto per tre as enticing as any French work for this combination, Teml's Hommage using nothing more Vivaldi-esque than repeated motifs and motoric scoring in its outer, fast movements, Malek as pastoral as his title suggests... well, you get the picture! Gabriela Krcková (oboe, cor anglais, oboe d'amore), Musica Bohemica Prague; Jaroslav Krcek.
