Good work of the dutch chambre orchestra! Goed gedaan!

I am currently going through a Boccherini phase... it's rather awkward- I never actually thought Boccherini could be as addictive as Mozart.

Beautiful performance an very informative comment. Thanks a lot!

Just one remark: Although said that it is not proved ("...who think that the Spanish guitar is so closely related to the Spanish soul and folk music that the Fandango quintet simply must have been first written for guitar and strings") I would say that this isn't even a hint which version was first: Boccherini was Italian ;-)

As many things in history, it is very probable that we will never know which version was written first...

Thank you so much for this wonderful video. Great performance, and a very special and huge thank you for the info about Boccherini. I know for first hand experience that his music is never easy to perform yet is so rich and very satisfying both for the listener and the performer, in every way. Thanks again. Keep the great work!
