JS Bach, Handel & Scarlatti: Gamba Sonatas
Bach, J S:
Viola da Gamba Sonatas Nos. 1-3, BWV1027-1029
Chorale Prelude BWV639 'Ich ruf' zu dir, Herr Jesu Christ'
Handel:
Sonata in G minor HWV364b
with Robin Michael (cello)
Scarlatti, D:
Keyboard Sonata K90 in D minor
with Robin Michael (cello)
Steven Isserlis (cello), Richard Egarr (harpsichord)
Bach wrote three wonderful sonatas for the viola da gamba (an early, slightly smaller relative of the modern cello). Lovingly recorded by Steven Isserlis and Richard Egarr, they are here joined by works by Handel and Scarlatti in a programme of haunting tranquillity.
