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.

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

Lovely. Have you tried Kuhnau?
