Here is all Handel’s music for solo oboe –
three concertos, four sonatas, and one recently discovered in-between
piece scored for oboe, two violins and continuo. Handel writes for the
instrument sympathetically, especially in the slow movements. Sarah
Francis has an appealing way with these, though her tone can tend
towards the fulsome. If the music is sometimes undercharacterised, the
ensemble’s playing is nevertheless neat. Forward sound. George Hall
Enjoy :)
What is the name of the painting in the album's cover? And who painted it? :)
ReplyDeleteHi Anna. Did you find about your question? If not, here it is. It is "La barre and other musicians" by Robert Tournieres.
ReplyDeletePD: Sorry for the long wait, but as you saw, the blog was quite abandoned all this time.
Many thanks for the oboe music.
ReplyDeleteHow many ways to thank you for sharing this music?
