Notes & Reviews:

"This disc is a single-disc condensation drawn from the earlier set that comes, as an added bonus, a thick catalogue of Harmonia Mundi's active releases, and the asking price is modest. Naturally, Harmonia has not neglected to include Manze's top drawer performance of Geminiani's Concerto XII in D minor, "La Follia," rightly one of the most celebrated of Manze's recordings with the Academy of Ancient Music and already anthologized by Harmonia on a couple of occasions." -All Music

Gramophone Magazine
A true delight... Where Manze's particular success lies is in conjuring the atmosphere of the past and in the sheer joyousness and freshness which these performances convey... It is quite an achievement when a recording stirs anticipation of three different things at once, but this one does. So let's hope for Corelli's Op.5 from Manze, Corelli's Op.6 from The Academy, and more music by Geminiani by either or both. When do they start?
