Quantz - Trio Sonata C minor; Bach - Gigue & Sonata G minor

These baroque pieces from the masters Johann Quantz and Johann Sebastian Bach are truly enchanting pieces for chamber enthusiasts and students everywhere. These chamber sonatas combine oboe, flute and a background of “basso continuo” commonly carried out by a harpsichord and viola da gamba. Accompanied by the acclaimed Rameau Trio, these intermediate-level pieces will give you a lifetime of pleasure. Oboe virtuoso Virginia Brewer performs each piece with the Trio, then you become the oboist in this magnificent group of chamber professionals. Highly recommended. Includes a high-quality printed music score, complete with period performance notes and examples; and a compact disc containing a complete performance with soloist; then a second version with the accompaniment, minus the soloist.

Performed by Virginia Brewer, oboe

Accompaniment: The Rameau Trio: Jean Antrim, flute; Jocelyn Chaparro, harpsichord; Fortunato Arico, viola da gamba
