Paradox Trio by Matt Darriau's Paradox Trio

Composer, bandleader, and multi-reedist Matt Darriau gives traditional folk material a contemporary improvisational spin, writing new tunes that mix old-world and modern influences, and displaying masterful soloing chops not only on an array of saxophones and clarinets, but also pennywhistle, slide whistle, Irish flute, kaval (a Balkan flute), and gaida (a Bulgarian bagpipe).
