For String Quartet Volume 1. Par BACH JOHANN-SEBASTIAN. The idea for these arrangements came to me whilst listening to the Hagen Quartet's beautiful recording of the fugues that form part of Haydn's 'Sun Quartets', Op. 20. The spirit and influence of J.S.

You can expect to hear the composer's trademark cinematic moments, soaring choral melodies, and impressionistic c…

The OperAria repertoire anthology was much applauded when it came on stage with three baritone volumes in 2015.
