Echo du Danube is a well established, pan-European period instrument ensemble with four previous titles on the Accent label to it's credit; all of them garnered favorable responses from Fanfare reviewers J. F. Weber, Bertil van Boer and Michael Carter. I have nothing but the highest admiration for the performances on this disc. Depending on the scoring, there are as many as three violinists and one violist in the mix; the upper strings are expressive, supple, and suave. Director Christian Zincke also functions as the bass viola da gamba player, and together with keyboardist Lutz Gillmann they provide a solid underpinning for the group. Gillmann alternates between harpsichord and chamber organ; I find the sonority of the latter especially appropriate in the context of the string ensemble. Ample annotations and a thoroughly natural-sounding engineering job complete the picture. Another fine addition to the already extensive Accent catalog. Highly recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Accent Records","offers":[{"title":"New \/ CD \/ Sonatae Pro Diversis Instrumentis Op 1 Accent Records","offer_id":47766686138676,"sku":"ACR24264.2","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0790\/7436\/1652\/files\/2299580.jpg?v=1770566541","url":"https:\/\/www.fye.com\/products\/finger-echo-du-danube-sonatae-pro-diversis-instrumentis-op-1_aec-acr24264-2","provider":"FYE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
