Robert Stallman, flute

"A fabulous flutist, and this is one of the finest solo flute recordings I've heard to date...superb technical skills...staggering emotional power...highly recommended. Indeed, no flute fancier will want to be without it, nor should any contemporary collector overlook it." Fanfare (Fanfare Want List selection)

"The fascinating program is much more than a virtuoso's showcase." The Denver Post

"Stallman is a wonderful flutist. He plays this very demanding music with ease, intelligence, and a lilting quality to his sound. This is a very worthwhile recording, even for non-flutists!" American Record Guide
