Donna Milanovich, flute
Wendy Kerner Lucas, harp

Three Recording Premieres! - A fresh, atmospheric program in French style, this recording is a beautiful reminder that the great music for flute and harp is closely identified with France. - The Glorian Duo, a standout among among flute and harp duos. - Wendy Kerner Lucas is a protege of harpist Susann McDonald, whose World of the Harp (DE 3005) album was one of Delos' very first digital recordings - back in 1979! - and remains a perennial favorite. - We find Donna Milanovich remarkable for her full-bodied tone and bel canto phrasing. Her adaptation of Saint-Saens' Fantaisie (the original is for harp and violin) gives the work a lovely new color. - David Diamond's exquisite Concert Piece, written in 1989 for the Glorian Duo, is a tribute to his friend Albert Roussel, and reminds us of the strong French influence in Diamond's background. - The Glorian Duo discovered Tulou's Nocturne, (containing variations based on the old Welsh tune All Through the Night!) in an archive, in a condition too fragile to photocopy. The Duo had the Nocturne photographed, microfilmed and copied. The Program booklet contains special Young People's Edition
