CD Reviews

Nice early music discovery

J. Oakley | San Francisco | 07/31/2005

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Trevor Pinnock (conductor and elite harpsichordist) has a playful yet disciplined style that works well for this music. It is a relatively short CD (around 40min, I believe) with a broad arch from playful prelude to meditative finale. I return to it often."
