Methul - Concertos and Chamber Music

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.
