Disc 2, thoroughly enjoying myself! If only Pierre Vérany would reissue more of this stuff...

PS This 5-CD set is currently quite a bargain at AmazonUK.

First run of this disc, that would have been better off with the title: 18th century music for organ or organ and soprano from Lombardy.

Anyway, this is one of those discs outside of the mainstream that is "nice to have" if you are a  collector of the repertoire.
Lorenzo Ghielmi plays the organ of the Chiesa di Sant'Antonio in Villa di Tirano, built 1792-1794 by Giovan Battista Ettori.

[The new erato]

The Kerll work is very good, the Biber rather generic. Fine performances and sound.

Beethoven Piano Sonata No.27 E minor op.90 played by Charles Rosen




Sarge

[Daverz]

Not the most elegant playing, at times I'm reminded of a Klezmer band!  But involving in any case.

The Mozart Duo for violin and viola, K423, is wonderful.

I acquired Vol. I a year ago, and did not become enamoured by her restless playing style, so that was it.

[TheGSMoeller]

Prokofiev's Quartet No. 2 performed by the Russian String Quartet.
And Brahms Horn Trio from one of the best chamber discs I've heard. The natural horn work from Teunis van der Zwart is tremendous.
