An excellent disc here. Gardiner is very fine here, tightly rhythmical, focused, refined and totally inside the idiom.

He finds lovely sonorities and brings fresh life in music that was sometimes in the past given rather turgid performances. There’s certainly nothing turgid here!

The orchestral playing is magnificent.

This performance dates from 1990.

The Archiv digital sound is impressive.

The item is brand new and factory sealed.

German-made disc.
