About

This recording of the complete Handel’s recorder sonatas is characterized by a newfangled, Mediterranean and daring reading; an exuberant continuo and improvised ornamentation are common elements in the all sonatas. Mediterrània Consort bases its performance on the constant search for the implicit affetti in this great work by the German composer.

Awards and reviews

October 2022

Antich is not only a player of technical accomplishment but also demonstrates in his phrasing, ornamentation and choice of tempos a lively sense of apposite style...Antich is discreetly and effectively supported throughout by an imaginatively deployed continuo group.
