Description
PREMIERE RECORDINGS
The orchestra of Handel's opera company at the King's Theatre consisted of outstanding musicians, including Milan-born Giuseppe Sammartini (1695-1750), for whom London also became the new home.
Here he was successful not only as an oboe virtuoso, but also as a composer. The otherwise rather critical Charles Burney praised his music "full of artistry, originality and fire". In view of their originality and quality, which is characterised by a deep emotionality and even bizarre surprises, it is quite astonishing that some of the sonatas were recorded for the first time on AEOLUS as part of this complete recording.
"This disc is one of the most interesting and important releases of late, and I am looking forward to the next volume."
