In the history of music, the early eighteenth century rises like an ocean into which all streams flow. New depths emerged, expression swells like a flood, instrumental colour shimmers, and virtuosity courses through it all. In Handel’s and Telemann’s Water Music, an irresistible currents murmur; Vivaldi’s concerto bubbles with pure joy of playing. Early music specialist Kreeta-Maria Kentala steers the listener into the whirlpools of the Baroque.
