“Gottfried Finger’s
Chamber Music for Habsburg Courts” |
Gottfried Finger (ca. 1660–1730) had an
active career as an opera composer in England before he worked for a series
of courts
Vienna, Berlin, Innsbruck, Heidelberg, Mannheim, and Düsseldorf
His music is a synthesis of Purcell’s harmonies and folk idioms from his
native Moravia, and he excelled at writing chamber music for clarino, the
valveless, baroque trumpet that is the centerpiece of this ensemble.

“Fanfare
Consort’s excellent new disc should appeal
to
anyone with a taste for a mellow, lyrical, refined approach to this
distinctive repertory.”
|
~
Fanfare
Magazine,
Sept/Oct 2006 |
|
“I’m a
sucker for trumpet recordings. Thomas Freas’ The Intimate Sonate brought
many fond memories of my favorite trumpet recordings while providing thrills
in the present tense.” |
~
Early Music America Magazine,
Fall 2006 |
|
“Thom Freas combines a dark and full
baroque trumpet sound with smooth, lyrical phrasing that brings to mind
Armando Ghitalla . . . The strings and the harpsichord also tend towards the
dark and mellow in their sound and approach, creating a unified ensemble
with a gentle baroque style which is surprisingly relaxing to listen to.”
