Marie Jaëll's music is usually well-crafted, melodically memorable and quite muscular- I'm looking forward to this release.

It would appear to be available from the label directly and will surely show up on the usual sellers' websites soon.

Marie Jaëll: Une quête d'infini  , available digitally at Amazon-US already since Friday (also available as a CD soon, I think). Not everything is advertised in English even on American sites. I just searched under Jaëll and Bob was my uncle.

So for some it's 'hey presto' and for others it's Uncle Bob, whoever he may be ;)
And things would have been easier if I had given the original French title in the first place...
