CPO Handel: Acis And Galatea

Product Description The Danish String Quartet's love of traditional Scandinavian folk music is becoming as well known as the quartet's masterly approach to the classical repertoire. Now the renowned ensemble, at present house quartet at both New York's Lincoln Center Chamber Music Society and BBC Radio 3, is releasing the vinyl version of Wood Works", presenting their favourite melodies from Nordic folk music - including the 400 years old bridal music from the island of Fanø that has spread far and wide as a video with over 50,000 plays on YouTube and Vimeo." Review The musical of direction of Paul O'Dette and Stephen Stubbs strikes an intelligent balance between sheer delectability and the astute dramatization of moods. --Gramophone, Mar '16 The choral singing and instrumental playing are immaculate, well worthy of the BEMF's high standards. --Opera, June'16
