Description
For the 15th anniversary of Ensemble Diderot, and after forays into concertos and chamber music using larger forces, Johannes Pramsohler and his colleagues go back to the roots with a recording of their core repertoire: Trio Sonatas. Highly inventive works by Bach pupils Johann Gottlieb Goldberg and Wilhelm Friedemann Bach make for a programme in which the Diderots show their art with their trademark stylish and agile playing.
"A trio sonata ensemble in standard instrumentation does not come closer to W.F. Bach than with J.G. Goldberg's four sonatas for two violins and basso continuo. They deserve to take a place at the centre of the repertoire, in as much as they rank among the greatest in terms of their musical content, creative ideas, and compositional refinement."
"the players bring expressive refinement to the music. Tempos are affectively judged, and all is engagingly enlivened by their infectious enthusiasm and evenly balanced ensemble." – BBC Music Magazine ****
"In the melange between baroque and galant style, [Ensemble Diderot] know how to use their technically mature playing skills to give the works a gripping, lively and expressive form. And so their interpretations bring both stylistic worlds to life in rich detail." – Pizzicato
"this disc is welcome, because it includes a trio sonata by Wilhelm Friedemann Bach, whose chamber music is not that often performed. Another reason is the sheer brilliance of the Ensemble Diderot." – MusicWeb International
"[Trio Sonata in C Major by J.G. Golberg is] sometimes attributed to his famous teacher, and in a performance as lovely and lively as this one it's easy to see why, and to understand Bach's admiration for the young man. […] It's a delightful album." – BBC Radio 3, Record Review
"Ensemble Diderot are sympathetic advocates […]. The concluding B flat major Sonata shows them and the composer they champion at their best" – Gramophone
