Synopsis

Product Description
The Dutch Loeki Stardust Quartet was established in 1978, and from the outset was not your 'normal' group of recorder-players. Sure, Baroque repertoire figured prominently in
their concerts, but the concerts often contained surprises, substituting the last chord of a canzone with a well-known TV signature tune for example, in this case Loeki the Lion was the TV program that gave the quartet its name. Wanting to give concerts that were a crossover between St Martin in the Fields and Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young was the aim in the early years. A series of big engagements followed, including the Wigmore Hall with Christopher Hogwood, and then recordings for Decca which are included in this 4CD set. The maverick style of the group came to the fore again, when after a successful sequence of Baroque recordings they released a recording of music by Erroll Garner, Henry Mancini, Lennon and McCartney and Charlie Parker together with works by Vivaldi, Beethoven, J.C. and J.S. Bach. Never before has the recorder sounded so much fun!
