The tempi are unbearably slow throughout the score. Also terribly smudged strings in some places, though harpsichord cadenza is nicely recorded. The violin concerti movements aren't indexed. The price is attractive (13$ for a triple CD), but I'm warning you: pick Hogwood or Roy Goodman or anybody, JUST KEEP AWAY FROM THIS ONE! (Not to mention the utterly disgusting cover!)
