QuoteThese world premiere recordings will undoubtedly initiate a wonderful journey of rediscovery.
I'm startled by the originality and immediacy of all the included works: High baroque magnificence
woven with silver threads of austere Renaissance style... largely set in minor keys. Think of a melancholic
Zelenka, perhaps.
