"This is a very nice reissue of recordings from the '70s by some of the big names of the Dutch side of the early music movement like the Kuijkens brothers and Bruce Haynes. Any hautboy (baroque oboe) connoisseurs out there hoping to hear Haynes' original late 17th century Naust hautboy should know that it is not used in these recordings. Besides some occasional minor problems with intonation ("What do you call two baroque oboes playing in unison?" a major second) and performance's pitch standard (it sounds like a'=415 instead of French chamber pitch of 392-400), I think this is a wonderful reissue of some great performances and well worth buying."
