Before you listen to anything else, put Toutes Suites on! And not just their first, splendid Genuin CD by the German-Californian ensemble performing the music of Jean M. Müller, but also their latest release, a true world premiere of trio sonatas by Karlsruhe court musician Sebastian Bodinus (1700 -1759), which so far have suffered undeserved neglect on concert programs. In a disc commemorating the 250th anniversary of Bodinus’s death, the brilliance and inspired performances of oboist Marianne Pfau and her excellent colleagues not only blow the dust off historic gems, but also give your speakers a lively and elegant spring cleaning. With all due credit to Handel, we still lay claim to a Bodinus Year! Tout de suite!
Marianne R. Pfau, Nils Jönsson, Julia Belitz –hautbois
Anke Dennert – harpsichord • Regina Sanders – baroque bassoon
Heike Hümmer – violone

"In short, this is a fascinating discovery of music hitherto rarely if ever recorded, and probably hardly ever played since the demise of its composer. I eagerly look forward to further recitals by Toutes Suites - a current top favourite in this household. Recorded sound is first-rate."
