Awards and reviews
November 2018
Hazelzet and Fantasticus make an immensely strong case for them here: smoothly flowing readings high on intellectual sparkle and cheerful chamber conviviality, nimbly wrought articulation and subtly instinctive shaping that brings out the conversational qualities of the solo lines…while history has perhaps been a little cruel to Guilleman, Fantasticus themselves have been very kind indeed.

Highly entertaining music, which receives excellent performances.
