Bach, Handel & D Scarlatti: Gamba Sonatas

Steven Isserlis (cello), Richard Egarr (harpsichord)

CDA68045

Bach wrote three wonderful sonatas for the viola da gamba (an early, slightly smaller relative of the modern cello). Lovingly recorded by Steven Isserlis and Richard Egarr, they are here joined by works by Handel and Scarlatti in a programme of haunting tranquillity.
