The Strad Recommends

“… Andreas Brantelid has masterfully absorbed the subtle differences in language between these three works and delivers very eloquent renditions throughout. Everything is projected with good taste working in tandem with flawless virtuosity. It’s an impressive team offering idiomatic phrasing from Concerto Copenhagen and fine continuo realisations from Lars Ulrik Mortensen … Brantelid’s cadenzas are inventive and stylish, never outstaying their welcome. I strongly recommend this CD.”

Performance ****      Recording ****

“… The 15-player period ensemble Concerto Copenhagen, directed from the harpsichord by Lars Ulrik Mortensen, accompanies stylishly; and if the soloist is placed rather far forward in the spacious recording, who could complain with playing like this?”
