La Petite Bande – Le Quattro Stagioni (Vier Jahreszeiten) [CD]

Description

Kuijken’s recording shows a radically new view of the well-known work – and this entirely within the framework of historical performance practice! Firstly, the instrumentation here is chamber music, so not a single part is doubled, and secondly, instead of a conventional violoncello, a violoncello da spalla, a shoulder cello, is used, which has an effect on the sound.
