Wind Concertos (plus Haydn - Sinfonia concertante)

'Here [Haydn's Sinfonia concertante] is enterprisingly coupled with two of Mozart's earlier woodwind concertos on a recording that's a bit of a winner … you sense the fun they have with the music while never playing fast and loose with the basic pulse. A joy from start to finish … comprehensive notes by Richard Wigmore of this parish provide further gloss on one of the loveliest recent discs of this repertoire' (Gramophone)

'[A] spirited and affectionate performance heard here from the lithe violin of Ilya Gringolts, the sometimes-stratospheric cello playing of Nicolas Atlstaedt, the bucolic oboe of Alfredo Bernardini and the mischievous bassoon of Peter Whelan, with the resplendent ensemble Arcangelo under Jonathan Cohen' (BBC Music Magazine)

'Cohen's lively incorporation of authentic performance practices hits just the right tone, and the soloists throughout are exceptional' (Classic FM)

'Under their director Jonathan Cohen, the Arcangelo ensemble is turning into one of the most stylish purveyors of Baroque and Classical repertoire to emerge in recent years … they sound as though they're having the time of their lives-and the listener does, too! Outstanding in every way' (The Europadisc Review)
