(5 out of 5 stars)

"This fine recording presents the second set of Sonatas from Corelli's opus 5 with baroque recorder taking the solo line. The transcriptions work well musically and within the musical-historical context, given they are based on contemporary transcriptions. The ornaments and runs supplied Jean-Pierre Nicolas on his alto and voice recorders are thrilling and tastefully executed and the ensemble works well and sounds good behind him. Nicolas' sound is just what you'd want from a recorderist, and its worth hearing the warm tone of the voice-recorder. The theorbist, Yasunori Imamura adds delighful colour to the basso continuo part, although I wondered at his reluctance to ever use the bass diapasons, even in final chords or cadences.

Overall well worth the low price if you enjoy Corelli and the gorgeous sound of the baroque flute/recorder."
