Chamber Music for English Horn and Strings

I do have a CD recommendation for this week.  It's the 2004 debut of Chamber Music for English Horn and Strings (running time approximately 54 minutes).  It features members of the St. Louis Symphony with David Halen on violin and Marc Gordon on English horn.  Lenard Slatin was the producer of the record, which is on A&M Recordings. 

The pieces performed are:

Michael Haydn - Quartet in C Major

W.A. Mozart - Adagio K580a

Rossinni - Sonata No. 2

Jean Francaix - Quatuor

I enjoyed all the pieces on it.  Giving it as a present to someone who loves music is a great way to introduce them to members of the St. Louis Symphony.
