Buxtehude: Seven Trio Sonatas, Op. 2, BuxWV 259-265


“All four musicians...reveal their experience and expertise as interpreters, particularly of this kind of German repertoire, which they have been championing for some time now; less flamboyant or fatly comfortable of sound than Koopman's group, they can nevertheless pace the music's stops and starts perfectly” --Gramophone Magazine, May 2012






“These are as always period instrument performances by the Purcells, and their customary professionalism should appeal to most ears. However, there is a certain amount of almost regal restraint in their playing that makes Buxtehude sound more like Purcell. This is no bad thing but it’s not entirely Buxtehude, whose quirky fertility may benefit from a more unbuttoned treatment.” --MusicWeb International, August 2012
