A lovely new recording of baroque chamber music from the label introduced to us by Bart.



This is really a great album.

Johan Schop and his contemporaries - The Hanseatic violin school in the 17th century
Annegret Siedel, baroque violin
Barbara Maria Willi, harpsichord, organ
Hubert Hoffmann, theorbo
via Qobuz




After hearing the fantastic album earlier this week, from Hubert Hoffmann, I searched for more albums with him.
No booklet included unfortunately, but this is a very enjoyable album.

This double album is of an astonishing beauty.
A beautiful voice, accompanied by a gothic harp, flute and a hurdy-gurdy.
And some of the most heavenly melodies I have recently heard...

More about the most important composer of the 14th century:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guillaume_de_Machaut

We remain in calm, almost ethereal atmospheres, with this set.

This is gorgeous music!
There are not so many female baroque composers that were well-known and popular.
She was one of them.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Élisab...t_de_La_Guerre

Power to the women!
We've listened to a lot of female composers and musicians today.

Bach - The Solo Cantatas for Bass
Christian Senn, bass
laBarocca, Ruben Jais
Qobuz 24/48




A bit of Bach to end the evening.
Not the absolute best performance of these pieces, but still very enjoyable.

A lot of talent gathered on this album!
