Cantate Bwv 202 Oboe Concerto

On the occasion of the twelfth Folle Journée festival "The Harmony of Nations", the Ricercar Consort ensemble conducted by Philippe Pierlot, and Mirare are delighted to present the official disc of this event. The programme on this CD is a foretaste of what we will be heard during the festival with works composed by two major representatives of European baroque music, Handel for Great Britain and Bach for Germany. The Ricercar Consort is one of the most prestigious baroque music ensembles in Europe, and gives us an extremely beautiful and rigorous interpretation, and are accompanied on this disc by the young Spanish soprano Núria Rial, harpist Giovanna Pessi and oboist Patrick Beaugirard.
