Music by Alec Wilder (1907-1980), jazz of the 1940s for flute, oboe, clarinet, bass clarinet, bassoon, percussion, bass and harpsichord. A rare opportunity to hear the legendary octets of the American composer Alec Wilder (1907-1980). A discovery, not only for jazz lovers! The pieces have creative titles such as "neurotic goldfish", "Jack, this is my husband" or "Children met the train".
