Boismortier - Sonatas for Two Bassoons and Continuo by Musica Franca Musica Franca : Boismortier - Sonatas for Two Bassoons and Continuo.
Buoyant baroque bassoon.


An ideal blend of soothing and energizing qualities, this good natured, mid-tempo baroque music has the power to get your day flowing in exactly the right direction. The Boismortier sonatas are treated with infinite subtlety and feline grace—played by Musica Franca with the virtuosity his work demands. With their infinite variations and nuances, this interpretation reveals the skills that allowed Joseph Bodin de Boismortier to become one of the first composers to succeed without a patron...able to make his living entirely by writing new works of music.
