…Chen's assured sense of structure and development in four works of considerable dramatic power and wit. His command of orchestral colour and texture never falters, and is never better displayed than in Extase. The solo part, brilliantly realised by Jean-Louis Capezzali, demonstrates what a thrilling, versatile yet underused instrument the oboe is, and there is marvellous scoring for trumpets, too.
