THE HANOVERIAN ENSEMBLE

• The Hanoverian Ensemble

"Listening to this CD is a most enjoyable and fascinating experience...The Hanoverian Ensemble is composed of distinguished chamber musicians who have taken immense pain to re-create the spirit and the style of the music, choosing sympathetic tempi and embellishing the music with precise and deftly-played ornamentation...Impressive virtuosity [and] masterly physical and mental control is demonstrated by all members of the ensemble..."
CONSORT, Volume 60, Summer 2004
