Froberger - Allemande in A Minor and Telemann - Rondeau in G Major

Two old recordings of these great Baroque tracks, played on a Harpsichord.
The two recordings come from a single side of a white-label 78rpm record.

p.s. There is also an excellent version of Froberger's 'Allemande..' on youtube, played on the Lute, which is superbly done, and well worth checking out!

Do you know which suite of froberger this is from?

[ediblesponge]

I believe it may be from suite in G Minor, as this is what is specified on the Lute version, but otherwise, the label informs only to a minor degree!

whos playing this?

[ediblesponge]

unfortunately the record doesn't say; there's a longer answer below, although i could send you the mp3 if you like?

thanks,

who is playing the froberger? is it kenneth gilbert?

[ediblesponge]

i'm afraid the record doesn't say; the label is handwritten and neglects to mention the player, which is unfortunate.

However, being a 78rpm record, it's at least pre-1950, and judging from the handwriting, possibly from 1910-1930, although i'm no expert.

I can email you a picture of the label if you like, to see if you can tell anything more from it?

i can send the mp3 as well, if you like!

thanks,

tom
