This new release is an album of contemporary works for clarinet, supported by guitar, piano, and double bass. These works take as their foundation the traditions of Portuguese folk music. One of the more visible and active clarinetists on the scene today, Wesley Ferreira has been praised by critics for his "beautiful tone" and "technical prowess" (The Clarinet Journal) as well as his "remarkable sensitivity" (CAML Review). Fanfare Magazine notes, Ferreira is "clearly a major talent". As a recital clarinetist, his performances continually engage audiences, compelling the artistic director of one recent concert series performance to remark that Ferreira "showcased a potent synthesis of serious musicianship, technical ferocity, and bravery of programming that was effectively tempered by a dynamic flair for showmanship. With this performance, Ferreira proved not only is he an artist of some consequence, but also a consummate showman capable for presenting even the most challenging works with the ease and fluency of a world-class player."
