He is also a unique artist who made his debut on the ALPHA label with a bagpipe album featuring traditional music from central and southern France. While he delivers traverso performances that vividly capture the essence of flute works by Bach, Telemann, and others, he also engages with Irish music on period instruments—making him an artist whose every album is a must-listen. Now, Lazarević takes on the 17th-century Dutch collection *The Paradise of the Flute*, widely regarded as a seminal work in the history of the recorder. Composed by a blind carillonist—said to have delighted townspeople with his wonderful performances from the churches of Utrecht—this collection is designed to be played on any type of flute. Lazarević explores the world of this collection not only on his primary instrument, the transverse flute, but also on a wide variety of recorders—from soprano to bass— and even the musette (a bellows-driven bagpipe) used during the Baroque and Rococo periods. What is truly remarkable is the exceptional quality of the performance, which makes one forget this unconventional choice of instruments! The tasteful performance, which captures the subtleties of Van Eyck’s skillful variations on famous 17th-century melodies, possesses an overwhelming presence that cannot be confined to the realm of early music. The interview with the artist included in the liner notes is also fascinating. Yet another distinctive ALPHA album has been brought to the world.\nNaxos Japan\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alpha","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53374659035425,"sku":"4589538765491","price":2673.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4589538765491.jpg?v=1787632232","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/products\/4589538765491","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
