Sonatas pur viole de gambe et clavecin Main Performer or Conductor: Juan Manuel Quintana Soloists: Juan Manuel Quintana Celine Frisch Instrumentation: Harpsichord Viola da Gamba Individual Works: Sonate BWV 1027 Sonate BWV 1028 Sonate BWV 1029 Sonate BWV 1019 (transcription of the Sonata for violin and harpsichord) Format: Compact Disc Record Label: Harmonia Mundi Catalog Number: HMC 901712 Year Released/Recorded: 2001 Total Playing Time: 57'27 Comments: Jordan Sayers said: A fantastic recording in every respect by these two young musicians. Juan Manuel Quintana (b.1972)and Celine Frisch (b.1974) demonstrate that the future of baroque is capable and sensitive hands. I prefer this Harmonia Mundi recording of the gamba sonatas over all others I've heard: the sound is superb and the balance of viola da gambe and harpsichord is perfect. With many of my favorite musicians having aged well beyond their peak of performance, it is a relief to find recordings like this.
