Musical life at Court during the time of Domenico Scarlatti (1685-1757) is the theme of the concert cycle 'Los Siglos de Oro' organised by the Fundación Caja Madrid, which, as usual, is divided into three shorter cycles 'Winter-Spring'; 'Fiestas Reales', 'Spring-Summer'; and 'Autumn'. |

| The devil is in the detail, as the saying goes, and even though Bach is one of the most played and recorded composers in history, it is rare to hear performances of his compositions that display sufficient sensitivity to the rhetorical eloquence that is at their foundation. It is therefore a great pleasure to encounter this recording by Monica Huggett and Sonnerie, as the group makes Bach’s music truly come to life with imagination, expressiveness and enviable virtuosity. |

42 concerts and numerous activities are scheduled for this year’s Göttingen Handel Festival, an event which having been founded in 1920 can claim to be the longest-running baroque music festival in the world. Although its overriding purpose has always been the rediscovery and dissemination of the music of George Friedrich Handel, the festival also provides a platform for other baroque composers. |
