Andreas Scholl (counter tenor) Concerto di Viole & Basel Consort The pieces on this recording demonstrate the consummate art with which the German composers reconciled the new ideas imported from Italy at the very beginning of the 17th century (the principle of the basso continuo, accompanied monody, the concertato technique) with local traditions, thereby giving birth to works of a subtle beauty and an almost inexhaustible richness. This stylistic revolution paved the way to the flourishing of great forms like the vocal solo, the spiritual concert, the cantata, etc. cultivated by composers as different as Schütz, Buxtehude, Tunder and Erlebach: in the very heart of Baroque Europe the Germans were taking their place. “…the union of youthful timbre, sublime instrumental playing and explorative repertoire achieves a rare kind of perfection here. …essential for lovers of Baroque vocal music.” Gramophone Magazine, August 2008 |

| |  | J C & J C F Bach: Keyboard Concertos
Susan Alexander-Max (fortepiano, director), Simon Standage (violin), Nicolette Moonen (violin), Trevor Jones (viola) & Jennifer Ward Clarke (cello) The Music Collection Johann Christian Bach, the youngest son of Johann Sebastian, made his career first in Italy and then, from 1762, in London, where he was a pioneer in the use of the fortepiano. His elegant, forward-looking concertos, written in the galant style, make a contrast with the more straightforward yet entertaining concertos by his older brother Johann Christoph Friedrich, who spent the greater part of his life at the court of Bückeburg in Lower Saxony. |
