Baroque Journey (CD) Secure Checkout

In her quest for “the recorder at its widest”, Lucie Horsch takes her listeners on a Grand Tour, a tour of the musical landscape of Europe during the Baroque era. Indeed, the most virtuoso compositions for recorder were written during that period. After it, the instrument fell into oblivion for centuries; it played no significant role in the classical and romantic era. Only since the 1960s has the recorder been taken seriously again among musicians and composers. ‘There is no established order in the recorder world yet as there is in the violin world, for example, with legends like Yehudi Menuhin,’ Horsch says. This gives her the freedom to play her instrument with an audible lightness and open-mindedness.
