Presse-Stimmen - press releases .This is a rather wellperformed CD, perhaps aimed at the huge Petri market (although the playing is more musical than Petri fans are used to) ... If the first three notes don´t make you sit up with a start you have the most unshockalble ears in early music! However, if you return to these after the rest of the disc they seem the obvious thing to have done, a tribute to the seductiveness of her interpretations of works to which I am glad to have been introduced ... Arranged for gamba, the nobility of Corelli's slow movements is even more pronounced than usual and Paul Simmonds' nimble fingers make light of the lavish decorations in Babell's transcription of Handel ... The Babells had, and the Trio Basiliensis have, excellent taste. This is much more than mere Tafelmusik. Scheinbar war für den ab 1700 in London lebenden französischen Fagottisten Charles Babell nebst seiner Orchestertätigkeit und dem Komponieren das Sammeln und Bearbeiten von zeitgenössischen Werken eine zusätzliche Einnahmequelle. So entstand auch das in der Eastman School of Music in Rochester, New York, aufbewahrte Manuscript. Charles und William Babell´s Musik in einer stilistisch fundierten und bis ins kleinste Detail durchdachten Interpretation. |
