As always, I find their interpretation a bit too "sturm-und-drang". (I know it's not the same period.) I have a feeling that Goebel has a lot of aggression bottled up inside his little physique.

Goebel, Hazelzet, Staier und Carrai. The best!!!!

@b0ttomzone You seem to think Baroque composers wrote trios sonatas on a whim and there were corner music stores stocked with the latest trio sonatas It didn't work that way. Most of Bach's instrumental music was composed on commission from the noble/royal patrons that employed him, such at the Dukes of Weimar and Weissenfels and Prince Leopold of Anhalt Coethen. Bach rarely published anything for mass consumption. And much was either lost but reworked in other compositions, esp, his cantatas.

@b0ttomzone Wrong. The Bach sonatas BWV 1027-29 for viola da gamba and harpsichord, BWV 1014-19 for harpsichord and violin, and BWV 1030-32 for flute and harpsichord, are all really trio sonatas even though there are only 2 instruments. The right hand of the harpsichord plays the 2nd part of the trio, equal to the 1st part, and the left hand plays the bass. BWV 1037-39 are trio sonatas for 2 melody instrument + continuo.

I don't know why Bach didn't write more trio sonatas... all of his contemporaries did. The only ones he wrote are this one, the six for organ, and maybe a few others I don't know about... did he not like that genre?

Great playing - for me a little bit too fast, but ok - they make it!

i cannot tell ... it's what's contained on almost all literature i've read with reference/comments on celli with thick baroque necks... i believe the Lanzetti album is one ... not sure ...

Why would it be harder to play?
Do you think those famous Baroque makers of violins, violas and cellos (e.g., Stainer, Stradivari, Amati, Guarneri, etc.) would bang their foreheads with the heels of their hands and say "WHY didn't I think to make the fingerboard narrower and angle the neck more!"



No it's Andreas Staier. Reinhard Goebel violin..Wilbert Hazelzet traverso.. and yes Phoebe Carrai cello

Goebel and Staier are the unsung heroes. They cut like a sharp knife.
