A cornucopia of musical genres from the continent, throughout a century. A fusion of High baroque and Early Classical repertoire highlighting the stylistic transition from one to the other. Breathtaking Sonatas and Suites feature alongside fresh, youthful Trios – riches of sound to suit all tastes, and allure the senses.
“Rarely have I enjoyed such excellent artists, each with an individual voice and rich instrumental sonority expressing musical ideas and emotions in such an unaffected manner. In ensemble every nuance and shading remained clear, almost conversation like, as one instrument interacted with the other, yet managing to preserve its own identity. Bravo!â€Â
