 Geoffrey Burgess reviews Han de Vries Oboist and author Geoffrey Burgess has written a review in the UK Double Reed News. It is a long one, as befits 11 hours of oboe music, but here is the beginning and the end:

"From favourites to the fantastic, rarities to the remarkable, Han de Vries: The Radio Recordings provides a spectacular showcase of the career of one of the most important oboists of the twentieth century.

"In addition to being a tribute to a great musician, the set provides a remarkable purview of oboe playing and trends in composition for the oboe in the course of the last three decades of the twentieth century. In short: a necessity for the oboist's studio and college library."
