GIOVANNI SOMIS (1686-1763): Sonatas for Recorder and Harpsichord, Op. 3, Nos. 2, 3, 5, 8 & 10-12 and Op. 4, Nos. 8 & 9.

Description: These are violin sonatas played on alto and soprano recorders and the note is by the soloist who self-servingly makes the case for doing so even though Somis was one of more highly-regarded violinists of his day. Wolfram Schurig (recorders), Johannes Hämmerle (harpsichord).
