Recordings and reviews
London Baroque's recording releases have been widely acclaimed. Charpentier's instrumental music (H.548, H.504, H.545, H.496), a world premiere in 1986 was well received by the specialised press. Their recording with Emma Kirkby of Handel cantatas was described as "Sympathetic and alert... with some finely poetic playing." (Gramophone, September 2001) and "They have never made a better disc and neither have I heard a superior performance of any Handel trio sonata." (Goldberg, July 2001). Of their release of Vivaldi Op. 1 trio sonatas, a reviewer said "London Baroque bring their customary virtues to these performances, including excellent internal rapport and blend, a richly mined string tone, passion and intensity." (Gramophone, March 2001).
