Mass in B minor
The Amsterdan Baroque Orchesta
Ton Koopman
Erato

If I had to choose just one record, this would be it...

PURCELL

The Fairy Queen
Les Arts Florissants
William Christie
harmonia mundi

Cervantes’ Don Quixote and this music both make me very happy.

CORELLI

Concerti Grossi
Europa Galante
Fabio Biondi
Opus 111

Less well-known than Vivaldi but no less beautiful. I think this recording captures the true spirit of Corelli.

Fricassée parisienne

Ensemble Clément Janequin
harmonia mundi

It’s rare to find this much liveliness and fun on a CD.

MARENZIO

Il nono Libro di Madrigali
La Venexiana
Glossa

Listen carefully to this album and true musical treasures will be revealed.
