Early Baroque in its magnificence

"It's hard to believe this CD was done with only a violin, viola da gama and harpsichord. This is polyphonic music at its finest. It does tribute to Buxtehude, who preceded Bach. The ensemble is perfect - the instruments complement each other. When they go from slow to fast, it is remarkable to hear the contrast. These are expert musicians with a complete mastery of their instruments. They use loud-soft as easily as any masters of the Baroque. The result is joyous, lively and entertaining."

"This is an incredible CD. I had to have it after getting Volume One as a present, and it's one of my Top Ten CDs. The quality of the recording is impeccable, and the musicians do an incredible job bringing this underrated composer's music to life. Everyone who loves Baroque music should own this CD. Every classical music station ought to have a copy of it. If I could give this CD six stars, I would!!!"
