5.0 out of 5 stars Exquiste, 6 Feb 2008
Exquiste performances. Concerto number 6 in D major includes a wonderful solo organ improvisation by Egarr as the second movement. The disc concludes with the little known 1707 concerto a 5 HWV 288(Known also as Sonata a 5) greatly influenced by Corelli but with greater imagination and theatrically on Handel's part. A must recording for any Handelian or Corellian. Also beautifully packaged by Harmonia Mundi.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dark and light Handel, 3 Nov 2008
By L. Hunt (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
At last: a fine recording of Op.3 on period instruments! This gives the music a less crisp edge, but they make up for it by infusing a warm and fullness you just don't get with modern instruments.

The playing is sparkling, and there is plenty for the musicians to get their `teeth' into. From the thumping opening of the No.1 in B-flat major - G minor - I (Track 1) to the light flutterings that begin No.6 in D major - D minor - I (Track 21), this CD is a tour de force.

This is the first CD in the Academy of Ancient Music's aim to record Op.1 to 7... so I shall be listening out for more of this quality!

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply superb, 15 Jun 2008
By Mrs. Lynne Park (Cheshire, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a wonderful CD which will appeal to any lover of Baroque music. Each piece is performed simply and elegantly by The Academy of Ancient Music, directed by Richard Egarr. From beginning to end, the performances on this CD are fresh, lively and clear ........ exquisite !
