Celebrate the legacy of Dutch recorder virtuoso and conductor Frans Bruggen (1934-2014) with this remarkable album by Lucie Horsch. A pioneer of the early music revival, Bruggen amassed an extraordinary collection of historic recorders dating from the 1680s to the 1740s. These instruments, silent since his passing, have been brought back to life by Horsch, one of Bruggen's compatriots, with special access granted by his widow. The fragility of these instruments required Horsch to limit her takes, resulting in a recording that feels almost live. This album is a tribute to Bruggen's enduring influence and a testament to the timeless beauty of early music.
