Notes & Reviews:

According to Gramophone magazine the Concertgebouw Chamber Orchestra is the best orchestra in the world, so you won't find greater quality performances than this release with the Concertgebouw and its principals as soloists. The oboe and violin soloists shine with unrivaled beauty, rendered even more gorgeous thanks to Pentatone's high quality recording techniques.

MusicWeb International, January 2013
There is very little to criticise here, and these are all very fine performances. The sound is pretty crisp supporting an historically informed approach with brisk tempi, a discretely balanced harpsichord helping things along and admirable transparency of texture and articulation.
