This new release gives us a small impression of what was played for entertainment in the late 17th and early 18th centuries in the houses of London’s high society. The variety of the programme ranges from typical British melancholy to ostinato melodies by Nicola Matteis, an Italian violinist who, like Handel, who is also represented here, enriched the musical life on the Thames as a musical guest worker and Englishman of choice, to the exuberance of the ‘Ayres’.
