Buxtehude: Trio Sonatas

Released

Dietrich Buxtehude’s contemporary reputation is based largely on his organ music — and on the famous story of a young J.S. Bach walking 200 miles in order to hear Buxtehude play. But his chamber music is absolutely delightful as well, and this recording of his trio sonatas by the Boston Museum Trio (playing historic instruments from the collection of that city’s Museum of Fine Arts) brings the works brilliantly and effervescently to life. The interplay between the husband-and-wife team of violinist Daniel Stepner and viola da gamba player Laura Jeppesen is particularly enjoyable to hear.
