Three Oboe Concertos Main Performer or Conductor: Heinz Holliger Accompaniment/Orchestra: Academy of St. Martin-in-the fields Soloists: Heinz Holliger, oboe Iona Brown, conductor Instrumentation: Oboe Orchestra Individual Works: Concerto in F for oboe, strings, and continuo, BWV 1053 Concerto in D minor for oboe, strings, and continuo, BWV 1059 Concerto in A for oboe, strings, and continuo, BWV 1055 Format: Compact Disc Record Label: Philips Catalog Number: 412 851-2 Year Released/Recorded: 1982 Total Playing Time: 48 min Comments: George Murnu said: Today's leading oboist performs with one of the leading ensembles, and yes the recording lives up to the high expectations. Crisp phrasing and articulation is what we expect from ASMF, and it combines well with Holliger's oboe. That the concerti are all reconstructions hardly matters given such a performance. Jan Hanford said: I buy anything by Heinz Holiger, he is simply one of the best musicians ever. His performance of these works is beautiful. A highly recommended recording.
