Recorder Sonatas

Album by George Frideric Handel & Michala Petri & Keith Jarrett

Recorder Sonatas is a set of chamber sonatas by Georg Friedrich Händel, composed around 1720. The works, scored for recorder and basso continuo, demonstrate Baroque melodic ornamentation and clear contrapuntal writing while marking an important strand of Händel's instrumental output during his early-to-mature compositional period.
First released: 1991
