Sunday morning music

 

I'm enjoying the music of a late Baroque composer new to me, Johann Wilhelm Hertel.  He was prolific, leaving a very large corpus of music on his death, but is little performed today.

Here's his Concerto for Oboe in G Minor.  The soloist is Meike Güldenhaupt, performing with the Main-Barockorchester Frankfurt.




You'll find more of his works on YouTube.

    For decades now, he's remained in the top five of my favorite composers for the oboe.
