Selected by Peter Holman in Goldberg

island.
The transfer to
CD is excellent: play this to your musical friends and get them to guess when it
was recorded.
Early Music Review
The excellent
musicianship displayed is quite simply beyond praise and the vibrancy and life
made evident in the music is a real joy to hear. The booklet contains
photographs and histories of all four instruments used.
