Articles "Racheal Cogan's unique use of Ganassi recorders to perform Greek traditional music as a member of the HaBiBis (sic) (a Melbourne group) deserves mention as well. Cogan's recorder effortlessly takes over the role of the Greek clarino (a type of clarinet); the improvisatory freedom of her performances within this idiom is little short of remarkable. The HaBiBis have issued 2 CDs: Four Warriors and Intoxication." Nick Horn, from the Recorder Home Page (1998)
