Gaubert

The French flautist and conductor Philippe Gaubert (1879-1941) composed in a conservative style owing most to his mentor Fauré. Kathryn Thomas, with beautifully focused if somewhat unvaried tone, leads fluent, assured performances of his mellifluously anodyne flute sonatas and trios. Anthony Burton
