Handel / Rowland,Gilbert - Suites for Harpsichord 3 - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

This third double CD set completes Gilbert Rowland's survey of these Handel's groundbreaking solo keyboard music, works that began to free the form from the formal constraints of Allemande, Courante, Sarabande, Gigue. Forty-plus years of recitals, appearances at major festivals in several countries, together with regular broadcasts, have helped to establish Gilbert Rowland's reputation as one of Britain's leading harpsichordists. The standard of playing is very high indeed... a most enjoyable recording. (The Consort on Vol.1) Album Tracks 1. Prelude 2. Allemande 3. Courante 4. Gigue 5. Allemande 6. Courante 7. Sarabande 8.
