Wonderful

Rudolf Schmidt | San Diego | 04/24/2008

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I've enjoyed the Academy of Ancient Music with Christopher Hogwood's recording of Vivaldi's cello sonatas and concertos for many years, and always wanted to get the rest of the sonatas, but high prices discouraged me. Then, along came this wonderful 2-CD set at a rock-bottom price. I couldn't be happier.

Edit: After listening to several episodes of BBC Radio 3's 'Building a Library', I feel obliged to add to my review this caveat: I wouldn't be able to tell a good performance from a bad one unless someone sneezed or dropped their instrument. So I'm wholly unqualified to say whether this performance of Vivaldi's cello sonatas is better or worse than any other."
