Buxtehude: VII Sonate,Op. 1

Buxtehude: VII Sonate,Op. 1

Purcell Quartet

Chandos Chaconne has previously recorded sacred cantatas of Buxtehude, but this is the label’s first recording of secular instrumental works of the composer. The VII Suonate, Op. 1 have now been recorded by The Purcell Quartet, who consistently receives good reviews, and is renowned for its artistry in repertoire of this kind. The trio sonatas are a remarkable example of Buxtehude’s beautiful chamber music and together with the trio sonatas Op. 2 are the only compositions that Buxtehude issued in print.

Buxtehude: Sonatas (7) (Trio Sonatas) for 2 violins, viola da gamba & harpsichord, Op. 1, BuxWV 252-258
Purcell Quartet
00:56:12
"Marooned in Lubeck, Buxtehude is remembered chiefly for his organ works, a daughter Bach did not wish to marry, and one exquisite cantata, 'Membra Jesu Nostri'. Shades of that cantata can be heard in the Purcell Quartet's thoughtful performance of Buxtehude's earliest surviving sonatas, most particularly in his declamatory use of chromatics and the gentle triple-time dances."
