GEORGE FRIDERIC HANDEL 12 Solo Sonatas op.1 Academy of Ancient Music, Richard Egarr
2h27
Digital
HMU907465.66
With its varied scoring and its exploration of instrumental combinations sometimes reminiscent of the Brandenburg Concertos, this set of 12 sonatas has nothing of an opus 1 about it, whatever the title page says! On the contrary, it is the work of a mature Handel in full command of his compositional resources.
