Bach,j.s. / Ferio Saxophone Quartet - Revive - Music CD

For it's second album on Chandos, the young Ferio Saxophone Quartet presents a set of unique arrangements of milestones from the baroque repertoire, from Corelli via Bach to Handel. Including many premiere recordings, these fresh interpretations, full of flair and vitality, played on instruments that combine elements of brass and woodwind, bring the tunes and counterpoint to a fascinating new register. The Ferio Quartet plays with power, warmth, and dexterity. "Playing is of the highest level throughout." (Classical Music) "Intensely musical performances... The artistry of the performances is beyond question." (Gramophone) "The Ferio Quartet plays with a nimble technique, mature phrasing, exquisite and forceful dynamics, and excellent balance, blend, and teamwork." (American Record Guide)
