This enjoyable new recording is the third in SOMM’s continuing collaboration with the London Handel Players.
The CD has something new and unique to offer. Adrian Butterfield writer of the CD booklet notes and the principal artist on this CD writes:- “The idea that a new recording of Handel’s violin sonatas might contain works written only by Handel may not seem to be a particularly revolutionary concept. And yet this recording will be the first to achieve this … for there has been a fog of confusion shrouding Handel’s chamber music since it was written in the first half of the 18th century …”London Handel Players
Adrian Butterfield – Violin
Katherine Sharman – Cello
Laurence Cummings – Harpsichord
The players bring together a wealth of experience as performers and recording artists and their two recent recordings for SOMM(Handel’s Op.5 trio Sonatas on SOMMCD 044 and “Handel at Home” SOMMCD 055) have been highly acclaimed.
