John Garth / Avison Ensemble - Six Concertos for the Violin Cello

A FANFARE CLASSICAL HALL OF FAME CD. 2 CDs for the price of 1. There are many fine compositions still lying undiscovered, and until recently this was true of the six Cello Concertos by John Garth. This native of Durham in Northern England proves to be a brilliant composer, and these concertos (which are believed to be the earliest examples of the Cello Concerto written in Britain) are surely the equal of those produced by Handel. Played on period instruments by one of Britain's leading baroque-music ensembles. Divine Art's best selling CD worldwide.
