Crisp and bright performance of Bach's enlightening sonatas.

(4 out of 5 stars)

"I don't have any other reference recordings to compare this double-disc bargain set to, but I find it to be an immensely pleasurable experience. All the instrumentalists play with clarity, color, and apparant effortlessness. Normally, I have difficulty listening to the harpsichord for over an hour (usually I find the instrument too "grating" for my tastes), but the combination of viola or flute in the pieces really augment the beauty of the keyboard. Again, I don't have a reference recording to compare this set to, but I believe that at such a moderate price, that this double-disc set is definitely worth a try."
One of the best

"Maxene Larrieu is a grgeat flutist. I have playted these sonatas for many years and have heard recordings by over 20 different artists and this is by far my favorite."
I want it!

"I have the vinyl version of this album and have listened to it for years. I have heard other flutists renditions of some of these pieces and none of them come close to this. This is by far some of the best-played bach I have heard. I would like to own the CD. It would be nice to hear this minus the pops and skips that occur on the old vinyl."
