”The oboist Helen Jahren manages to sound elegant in this punishingly athletic and long-winded oboe part - if she can do this in live performance, she can play anything.”
(Fanfare, USA) |

“…phenomenally performed by Helen Jahren. I recommend this CD emphatically.”

“…written for the supreme oboist Helen Jahren, with air and a shimmer around the soloist’s part, which is both ethereal and fiery.”
(Arbetet, Sweden) |

“…the record is called Ariel after its delicious oboe concerto featuring Helen Jahren.”
(Expressen, Sweden) |

“The record is called Ariel after an oboe concerto written for Helen Jahren (who else?). The oboe leads and constantly soars in front of and above the eagerly accompanying orchestra.”

”When you find names like Helen Jahren, Sören Hermansson and Roland Pöntinen on the record cover, you know that you can safely rely on the musicians' judgement in the matter of repertoire, musicality and technique. Ariel, the spirit of the air, makes a quick visit in the shape of Helen Jahren’s lively oboe playing.”
