12 Concerti Grossi after Scarlatti
The Avison Ensemble: Double CD
Thought by many to be Avison's greatest masterpieces, these arrangements of Scarlatti's keyboard sonatas were for many decades the only Avison music known. Now thanks to Gordon Dixon and the Avison Ensemble, a complete edition of his quite large output is weill underway; this is the fifth in the series, following two sets on Naxos and two on Divine Art.
This is sublime baroque music at its best, performed on period instruments.
