Handel: Trio Sonatas Op.2 & Op.5
Shrink-wrapped
Richard Egarr and the Academy of Ancient Music conclude their award-winning cycle with this dazzling traversal of the Trio Sonatas Op. 2 and Op. 5. These works, less frequently heard than much of Handel's output, are brilliantly crafted, exciting, and (above all) fun pieces of chamber music. The Italiante singing style of the melodic writing is both virtuosic and sonorous. Handel took Corelli's 'sonata da chisea' model and with consummate ease, created sparklingly diverse and richly colorful works that are clearly stamped with his own unique stylistic signature.
