Handel: Water Music; Organ Concertos
George Frederick Handel, Nikolaus Harnoncourt, ...

Elektra / Wea, 1994

What a wonderful, nutty performance this is! Nikolaus Harnoncourt simply revels in the raucous sounds made by his period instrument band. The horns don't play trills, but rather "raspberries," and while some people without much of a sense of humor object to the "Bronx cheer" approach, everyone seems to be having so much fun that it's churlish to complain. A panic. --David Hurwitz
