Reviews
“A lyrically expressive and technically flawless performance by Judith Farmer. Her beautiful, warm tone is immediately appealing … exquisite bassoon playing.”
- Remy Franck, Pizzicato
“Bassoonist Judith Farmer’s album Judith Farmer Plays Favorites goes a long ways to dispel any prejudices the listener might have against the bassoon.”
- Rafael de Acha, Rafael’s Music Notes
“Farmer plays with an excellent tone … a very fine outing for Farmer and a treat for all bassoon-fanciers.”
- Lynn René Bayley, The Art Music Lounge
“Farmer’s performance is excellent … this work [Boutry] allows Farmer to showcase her technical facility and virtuoso performance abilities.”
