Ahh, too bad I don't live in Boss Towne anymore.

I assume you'll be going to this, Karl:

from England
The ACADEMY of ANCIENT MUSIC
Richard Egarr, harpsichord and director
featuring Pavlo Beznosiuk, violin and Rachel Brown, flute

J. S. Bach, Handel and Telemann

Or am I wrong?

Oh, I'm going to be out of town that weekend, Andrei.

I'll find something!

Now jokes apart, which Baroque composers do you like most?

[karlhenning]

As a rule, Andrei, I find the Baroque pleasant to listen to, but there's enough of it around, generally, that I seldom seek it out.

So. . . what I like best, the usual suspects.  But above all, probably, the Monteverdi Vespro della Beata Vergine . . . I am very glad of this DVD of L'Orfeo, too.

Domenico Scarlatti, Andrei!

Purcell/Britten, too 

[Florestan]

Thanks. Great ones,. indeed.
