Description

This new addition to the ‘Baroque Around the World’ series invites you to explore exciting new repertoire by Scotland’s Baroque composers: Oswald, Reid, McGibbon and Mackintosh! This collection includes the first modern edition of Mackintosh’s G minor Sonata. These pieces are ideal for auditions and exams as well as concerts and can be performed as whole sonatas or single movements. The accompaniments are simple and effective; the instrumentation is flexible – suitable for violin or flute and cello or bassoon, plus keyboard. The sonatas are newly researched by the Scottish musicologist David Johnson. The CD includes complete performances as well as play-along tracks.
