A 2 CD set of World premiere recordings of music by Johann Gottfried Müthel (1728-1788).
Works include a concerto for 2 bassoons, sonatas for flutes and double harpsichord. Müthel was
music director for the city of Riga. Enraged at the increasing levels of traffic noise, he declared that
concerts should only be performed in the winter months so that the snow would muffle the
clattering of the coaches on the pavements. Musica Alta Ripa have recorded for MDG for over 15
years and all of their releases have received international critical acclaim. |

| |  | Goldberg - Chamber Music
Johann Gottlieb Goldberg (1727-1756) is supposed to have been something of an oddball. Some
regarded him as being depressive; he himself had a pathological loathing for his own works, some
of which he destroyed, terming them "poor trifles for ladies”. This release proves the composer
wrong! These are the well crafted compositions of a master. For more than 20 years the ensemble
Musica Alta Ripa has set the standard in the performance of early music. The recordings of the
trio sonatas and quartet for two violins, viola, and basso continuo are premiere recordings "These new performances from Musica Alta Ripa are excellent. Beautifully played and recorded, this is a welcome and long overdue introduction to an unfamiliar composer. Recommended" (BBC Music Magazine) | | | Usually despatched in 3 - 4 working days. |

| |  | Telemann - Overtures, Sonatas & Concertos Volume 4
”…I am a great fan of Musica Alta Ripa and this, the latest instalment of their Telemann series does
not disappoint. The works include a solo violin sonata, the well-known concerto for recorder, oboe,
violin and continuo, a not-so-well-known concerto in B flat for two recorders and strings…and a fine
concerto in G for four-part strings – Telemann’s works in this genre really are much better than
Vivaldi’s! This is one of the most enjoyable discs I’ve heard this month.” BC, Early Music Review | | | Usually despatched in 3 - 4 working days. |

Musica Alta Ripa, a Hannover ensemble whose previous outing for MDG, a collection of Handel cantatas and trios was highly praised. They take the palm here as well. Their tempos are generally quicker than those of the Purcell Quartet, even in the more lyrical French rondeaus, and the melodies are more highly inflected. Highly recommended.
