Sharon Bezaly's "Cafe Au Lait," released on December 1, 2001, under the BIS label, is a captivating journey through the world of chamber and classical music. This album, spanning a little over an hour, showcases Bezaly's exceptional artistry and versatility as a flutist. The tracklist is a diverse collection of pieces, ranging from the intricate "Passacaille, Op. 35" to the delicate "Sicilienne, Op. 78," and the lively "Allegro (Version for Flute & Piano)." Bezaly's interpretations bring a fresh perspective to these well-known works, while her renditions of lesser-known pieces, such as "Albumblatt" and "Scherzettino," are equally compelling. The album is a testament to Bezaly's technical prowess and her ability to convey a wide range of emotions through her music. Whether you're a seasoned classical music enthusiast or a newcomer to the genre, "Cafe Au Lait" offers a rich and rewarding listening experience.
